- Rushdie, Salman
- Rushdie, Salman
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 most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you NOT to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
- Williamson, Marianne

A word is not the same with one writer as with another. One tears it from his guts. The other pulls it out of his overcoat pocket.

The record of one's life must needs prove more interesting to him who writes it than to him who reads what has been written.

If you have knowledge, let others light their candles with it.
