Missing part
















"It was one of those days when it's a minute away
from snowing and there's this electricity in the air,
you can almost hear it. And this bag was, like, dancing with me.
Like a little kid begging me to play with it. For fifteen minutes.
And that's the day I realized there was this entire life behind things,
and... this incredibly benevolent force, that wanted me to know
there was no reason to be afraid, ever. Video's a poor excuse, I know.
But it helps me remember... and I need to remember...
Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it,
like my heart's going to cave in."


Ricky Fitts, from:"American Beauty"

1-10 Quotations of 293Beauty quotes
“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. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when 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.”

Used by Nelson Mandela in his 1994 inaugural speech
