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. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world.

As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

What is lovely never dies,
But passes into other loveliness,
Star-dust, or sea-foam, flower or winged air.
