Marianne Williamson
God is the electricity and we are the lamps.

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

Marianne Williamson
The teenager begins to realize he or she really does want to be part of a community, really does want to have good relationships with others, really does want to create something truly good with his or her life.

Marianne Williamson
We shouldn’t use our own upset as an excuse for not helping.
Marianne Williamson
For what we engage, we transform. And what we engage with our hearts is transformed forever.
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
Sometimes sadness is appropriate. Not something to run from, not something to numb...just something to feel.
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
The week ahead is already programmed for fabulousness. Pray that your thinking be aligned with the force that makes it so.
