More quotes by Marianne Williamson
The desire for transcendence is intimately connected with the desire for creativity. It is just as essential to who and what we are.
Marianne Williamson
Sometimes you are lifted up to the mountaintop as a gift from the universe, so you can see what is possible. Then you are put down back at the bottom: Now you have to earn it for yourself.
Marianne Williamson
Every relationship is a gift exchange.
Marianne Williamson

We were all born carrying a promise -- a promise to make the world better -- and there's a yearning to make good on that promise that none of us can suppress forever.
Marianne Williamson
There's only one of us here: What we give to others, we give to ourselves. What we withhold from others, we withhold from ourselves. In any moment, when we choose fear instead of love, we deny ourselves the experience of Paradise.
Marianne Williamson
It's difficult to be alive in America today and truly be in denial anymore. It's not hip to be unconscious or uninvolved. One of our great strengths is that we're an optimistic people, but that doesn't mean we don't have sad days.
Marianne Williamson
Everything we do is infused with the energy with which we do it. If we're frantic, life will be frantic. If we're peaceful, life will be peaceful. And so our goal in any situation becomes inner peace.
Marianne Williamson
The spiritual path - is simply the journey of living our lives. Everyone is on a spiritual path most people just don't know it.
Marianne Williamson
The U.S. incarcerates more of its people than any nation in the world, or any nation in history.
Marianne Williamson
The real axis of social change is not horizontal, but vertical. We don’t need a whole bunch of people gathering to think shallow thoughts together. What we need is for as many people as are ready to go there, to gather and think deep thoughts together.
Marianne Williamson
Use each interaction to be the best, most powerful version of yourself.
Marianne Williamson
Darkness is merely the absence of light, and fear is merely the absence of love. If we want to be rid of fear, we cannot fight it but must replace it with love.
