“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. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.”
- Nelson Mandela, inaugural address, written by Marianne Williamson

補記:有一句話,忽然覺得跟以上那段可以放在一起看,不過可能沒辦法直接看出關聯性就是。
