"A
woman is often measured by the things she cannot control. She is
measured by the way her body curves or doesn't curve, by where she is
flat or round. She is measured by 36-24-36 and inches and ages and
numbers, by all the outside things that don't ever add up to who she is
on the inside. And so if a woman is trying to be measured, let her be
measured by the thing she can control,by who she is and who she is
trying to become, because as every woman knows, measurements are only
statistics, and STATISTICS LIE."
Nike
"Our worst
fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are
powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not darkness that mostfrigtens
us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brillant, 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 is nothing enlightened
about shrinking so that others won't feel insecure around you. We were
born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is just not
in some of us; it is in every one of us."
Nelson Mandela
