More quotes by Marianne Williamson
Love is who we are, and when we deviate from that love we're deviating from our ultimate, essential, eternal reality.
Marianne Williamson
For what we engage, we transform. And what we engage with our hearts is transformed forever.
Marianne Williamson
I believe there is an evolutionary impulse toward good that is etched on every human heart. It is placed there by the hand of God.
Marianne Williamson
There is a lot to look at when you are serious about transformation. You look at everything you've ever done, every circumstance you've ever been in, cleaning up everything in your past. Reconciling, forgiving others, forgiving yourself. It's a lot of work, actually.
Marianne Williamson
Love and fear represent two different lenses through which to view the world. Which I choose to use will determine what I think I see.
Marianne Williamson
I don't feel there is any spiritual or metaphysical justification for turning our backs on human suffering.
Marianne Williamson
Like a great athlete, we must have a very clear vision of what we want to accomplish before we make a move. Vision, in preparation for an action, is as important as the action itself.
Marianne Williamson
We cannot get to our knowledge because the world is too loud. And we tend to make it louder as we cry out in pain, pretending we are singing.
Marianne Williamson
People who are meditating every day and involved in a serious spiritual practice don't usually wake up in the morning and want to rush out to eat a bunch of junk food.
Marianne Williamson
Our thoughts about the future go far toward creating it our minds and hears are like filaments taht connect today to tomorrow, they are conduits for either the status quo or the emergence of different, hopefully more loving, possibilities. How we think and how we behave determine where we are going
Marianne Williamson
Stop waiting for a producer. Produce yourself.
Marianne Williamson
Often we see a couple who has separated or divorced and look with sadness at the ‘failure’ of their relationship. But if both people learned what they were meant to learn, then that relationship was a success.
Marianne Williamson
We think we need to create ourselves, always doing a paste-up job on our personalities. That is because we're trying to be special rather than real. We're pathetically trying to conform with all the other people trying to do the same.
Marianne Williamson
The concept of a divine, or 'Christ'-mind, is the idea that, at our core, we are not just identical, but actually the same being.
Marianne Williamson
Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.
Marianne Williamson
Some men know that a light touch of the tongue, running from a woman's toes to her ears, lingering in the softest way possible in various places in between, given often enough and sincerely enough, would add immeasurably to world peace.
Marianne Williamson
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.
Marianne Williamson
The week ahead is already programmed for fabulousness. Pray that your thinking be aligned with the force that makes it so.
Marianne Williamson
Without nourishing our own souls, we can't nourish the world, for we cannot give what we do not have. As we attend to our souls, we emanate invisibly and involuntarily the light we have received.
Marianne Williamson
Individuals seem to have reached their walls and so has the entire human race. Whatever isn't working, isn't life-producing, isn't producing love for ourselves or others, is going to have to go now. Or, literally, there will be hell to pay.
Marianne Williamson
