Fans of Nelson Mandela from around the world have banded to together to come up with inspiring and moving tributes to honor the life of the former South African President. Here's a sample of what you can find online:

Over at The New York Times, Bill Keller has written an excellent 10-Page Multimedia-Rich Obituary:
When the question was put to Mr. Mandela in an interview for this obituary in 2007 — after such barbarous torment, how do you keep hatred in check? — his answer was almost dismissive: Hating clouds the mind. It gets in the way of strategy. Leaders cannot afford to hate.
Tumblr has also made a tribute to Mandela's Signature Fist

The Wall Street Journal has come up with a poignant list of Mandela's Most Inspiring Quotes:
"We tried in our simple way to lead our life in a manner that may make a difference to those of others," he said when receiving the Four Freedom Award from the Roosevelt Institute in 2002.
And he's even set to be featured on the next New Yorker Cover



Given that he's lived such an amazing life and inspired so many people from all walks of life, you expect a lot more tributes to crop up over the weekend.
