You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure about you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us.

More quotes by Marianne Williamson
After decades of declining influence on the affairs of the world, there is once again a widespread consideration of spritual principles as an antidote to the pain of our times.
Marianne Williamson
In asking for miracles, we are seeking a practical goal: a return to inner peace. We’re not asking for something outside us to change, but for something inside us to change. We’re looking for a softer orientation to life.
Marianne Williamson
We're often afraid of looking at our shadow because we want to avoid the shame or embarrassment that comes along with admitting mistakes.
Marianne Williamson
The point of Jesus' existence wasn't to lessen or diminish our appreciation of each other, but to expand our appreciation of each other by reminding us what lies within all of us, because Jesus was an example of the pinnacle of human evolution.
Marianne Williamson
There is a collective force rising up on the earth today, an energy of the reborn feminine... This is a time of monumental shift, from the male dominance of human consciousness back to a balanced relationship between masculine and feminine.
Marianne Williamson
Physical circumstances have very little to do with either our capacity to love or to attract love.
Marianne Williamson
I've never seen service as separate from my spiritual practice or my spiritual teaching.
Marianne Williamson
Fear is not life-giving enough to sustain itself. We can move in the direction of fear only so long before it brings us to our knees, or to our end.
Marianne Williamson
You don't need a new life, just a new lens through which to view the one you have.
Marianne Williamson
At midlife, you're pregnant with the best self you can be - someone who has learned enough from both successes and failures to add up to a fine human being.
Marianne Williamson
You must master a new way to think, before you can master a new way to be.
Marianne Williamson
The reason we don't often confront the larger question of whether or not war is survivable is because of a failure of imagination. We honestly cannot imagine having reached a state in our own evolution in which we do not fight.
Marianne Williamson
Unless we can be like children, we can't be happy.
Marianne Williamson
I believe the human race is ready to make a quantum leap forward spiritually and morally.
Marianne Williamson
In every moment we make a decision -- whether conscious or unconscious. Will I choose to open my heart, send love, withhold judgment and thus free myself from fear? Or will I close my heart, project fear instead of extending love, judge others, and thus bind myself to fear? The choice is mine and mine alone.
Marianne Williamson
For what we engage, we transform. And what we engage with our hearts is transformed forever.
Marianne Williamson
I also think the women's movement has unintentionally contributed to the dishonoring of motherhood. It happened because we made such a big deal about our right to go out into the world.
Marianne Williamson
I am a glorious child of God. I am joyful, serene, positive, and loving.
Marianne Williamson
The problem with most intimate relationships is that they are not romantic. They do not involve a deeper knowing, and thus there is diminished possibility of sacred, transformative sharing.
Marianne Williamson
Every thought creates form on some level and all that our physical experience is - is a reflection of our thoughts.
