I'd like to meet:

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.

This inspiring quote by Marianne Williamson is from her book, A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles. In addition it is also part of Nelson Mandela's 1994 inauguration address.

But that aside ofcourse...My one and only, she's out there

"Words of Wisdom"

“Apathy can be overcome by enthusiasm, and enthusiasm can only be aroused by two things: first, an ideal, which takes the imagination by storm, and second, a definite intelligible plan for carrying that ideal into practice.” (Arnold Toynbee)

“Imagination disposes of everything; it creates beauty, justice, and happiness, which are everything in this world.” (Blaise Pascal)

“Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it, we go nowhere.” (Carl Sagan)

“Nothing happens unless first we dream.” (Carl Sandburg)

“Affliction is more apt to suffocate the imagination than to stimulate it.” (Denise Levertov)

“Heaven is so far off the Mind That were the Mind dissolved— The Site—of it—by Architect Could not again be proved— 'Tis vast—as our Capacity— As fair—as our idea— To Him of adequate desire No further 'tis, than Here”

“The Brain—is wider than the Sky— For—put them side by side— The one the other will contain With ease—and You—beside—“ (Emily Dickson)

You see things; and you say, "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say, "Why not?" (George Bernard Shaw)

“Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.” (Gloria Steinem)

“The world is but a canvas to the imagination.” (Henry David Thoreau)

“Every great advance in science has issued from a new audacity of the imagination.” (John Dewey)

“A person will worship something, have no doubt about that. We may think our tribute is paid in secret in the dark recesses of our hearts, but it will out. That which dominates our imaginations and our thoughts will determine our lives, and our character. Therefore, it behooves us to be careful what we worship, for what we are worshipping we are becoming.” (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

“I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge -- myth is more potent than history -- dreams are more powerful than facts -- hope always triumphs over experience -- laughter is the cure for grief -- love is stronger than death.” (Robert Fulghum)

“Imagination is the living power and prime agent of all human perception.” (Samuel Taylor Coleridge)
