Alfred Nobel
signed the famous will which would
implement some of the goals
to which he had
devoted so much of his life. Nobel stipulated
in his will that most of his estate, more than
SEK 31 million
(today approximately SEK 1,702 million)
should be converted into
a fund and invested in "safe securities." |

Nelson Mandela held his Acceptance and Nobel Lecture on 10 December 1993 in the Oslo City Hall in Norway.
"Let it never be said by future generations that indifference, cynicism
or selfishness made us fail to live up to the ideals of humanism which
the Nobel Peace Prize encapsulates."
