A foolish man tells a woman to
stop talking, but a wise man
tells her that her mouth is
extremely beautiful when her
lips are closed

Some one asked a Muslim, "Why do your
girls cover up?" The Muslim boy
smiled and got two sweets. He
opened one and kept the other
one closed. He threw them both
on the dusty floor and asked the guy, "If I asked you to take
one of the sweets which one will
you choose?" Man replied, "The
covered one." The Muslim boy
then said, "That's how we treat
and see our women."

“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 most frightens
us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, 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's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other
people won't feel insecure
around you. We are all meant to
shine, as children do. We are
born to make manifest the glory
of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's 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.”
