what does this quote mean "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."?



Answer :

Answer: I do believe this is a question that is different for each person, but I can give you what I believe it means:

They don't fear that they do not have enough power, but that they have too much power, and that power is unstoppable, even by the speaker.  

Hence; "It is our light (too much power), not our darkness (the lack of power), that most frightens us."

Explanation: I have no context, so I did a general meaning. If this is incorrect, please write some context of the story/speaker this quote comes from and I can revise the answer.

Hope this helps!
