Answer 2

Are you looking for something entertaining or "intellectual"- that makes a big difference. Personally, I find that quote sort of inspiring. It's a great image.

Answer 3

inspiration

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?

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 were born to manifest the glory of god within us.
it's 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.
