That Martha quote is great! It always inspires me. Here’s another quote I just rediscovered that you might like too, kind of in a similar vein:
“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” ~ Howard Thurman
