I have 2.
"Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our greatest 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, fabulous, gorgeous, talented?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
You're playing small doesn't serve the world.
There's 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's within us. It's not just in some of us.
It's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine,
we automatically give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fears, our presence automatically liberates others." N. Mandela
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul. - excerpt from INVICTUS

Love your quote.
Mine is maybe "You must be the change you wish to see in the world"
or "Without love we are birds with broken wings"
or
"What a caterpillar calls the end of the world, the MAster calls a butterfly"

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it. Life is beauty, admire it. Life is bliss, taste it.
Life is a dream, realize it. Life is a challenge, meet it. Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it. Life is a promise, fulfill it. Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it. Life is a tragedy, confront it .
Life is an adventure, dare it. Life is luck, make it. Life is too precious, do not destroy it. Life is life, fight for it.
- Mother Teresa

We might feel that we are insignificant, like we are as a drop of water, but without that drop, the ocean would be less.--Mother Teresa
