John P. Kretzmann and John L. McKnight

Every single person has capabilities, abilities and gifts. Living a good life depends on whether those capabilities can be used, abilities expressed and gifts given. If they are, the person will be valued, feel powerful and well-connected to the people around them. And the community around the person will be more powerful because of the contribution the person is making.

(from Building Communities From the Inside Out: A Path Toward Finding and Mobilizing a Community's Assets)
