Powers and Abilities
The Goddess is the abstract representation of the "positive" emotional elements of Adam Warlock's persona, made manifest into a physical form. Her body has certain cosmic energy receptive-cells, granting her superhuman strength and durability, telepathy, cosmic awareness, and mind-control, the ability to fly at supersonic speed, and the ability to manipulate cosmic energy for a variety of other effects. She is also an accomplished self-taught philosopher, and a master planner and schemer.
Her powers are mostly unconfirmed, since all of the recorded actions of the Goddess were during her possession of the 30 Cosmic Cubes. Nevertheless, since she was able to gather the Cubes in the first place, an extremely high degree of personal power must be assumed, presumably similar to those shared by her "brothers" Warlock and Magus.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:
“For human nature, being more highly pitched, selved, and distinctive than anything in the world, can have been developed, evolved, condensed, from the vastness of the world not anyhow or by the working of common powers but only by one of finer or higher pitch and determination than itself.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
“A child is born with the potential ability to learn Chinese or Swahili, play a kazoo, climb a tree, make a strudel or a birdhouse, take pleasure in finding the coordinates of a star. Genetic inheritance determines a child’s abilities and weaknesses. But those who raise a child call forth from that matrix the traits and talents they consider important.”
—Emilie Buchwald (20th century)
