Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most.

It never frightened a Puritan when you bade him stand still and
listen to the speech of God. His closet and his church were full
of the reverberations of the awful, gracious, beautiful voice for
which he listened.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside
the still waters.
