You playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightening about shrinking so others won't feel insecure around you. As you let your own light shine, you indirectly give others permission to do the same.

More quotes by Marianne Williamson
We're hallucinating. And that's what this world is: a mass hallucination, where fear seems more real than love. Fear is an illusion. Our craziness, paranoia, anxiety and trauma are literally all imagined.
Marianne Williamson
God is the electricity and we are the lamps.
Marianne Williamson
Miracles occur naturally as expressions of love. When you choose to love, you choose to work miracles.
Marianne Williamson
What if we truly believed that there is a beneficent order to things, a force that's holding things together without our conscious control? What if we could see, in our daily lives, the working of that force? What if we believed it loved us somehow and cared for us, and protected us? What if we believed we could afford to relax?
Marianne Williamson
When you meet anyone, remember it is a holy encounter. As you see him, you will see yourself. As you treat him, you will treat yourself. As you think of him, you will think of yourself. Never forget this, for in him you will find yourself or lose yourself.
Marianne Williamson
The more mature we are, the more receptive we are.
Marianne Williamson
If a person is fearful, it is a fearful time. If a person is hopeful, it's a hopeful time. If you look at world events one way, fear is reasonable. If you look at the world another way, hope is justified.
Marianne Williamson
If you have a longing in your heart to hear a deeper truth, there's a mysterious way in which that truth will find you.
Marianne Williamson
There is no amount of money, time or energy too great to spend on our children. They are our angels, our future. In failing them, we are failing ourselves.
Marianne Williamson
We can't look to the world to restore our worth we're here to restore our worth to the world. The world outside us can reflect our glory, but it cannot create it. It cannot crown us. Only God can crown us, and he already has.
Marianne Williamson
You don't have to be a spiritual seeker, you can be a businessman dealing with the revolution in computers. You could be a congressman, or a scientist. No matter what area of life and endeavor we are in we are seeing the signs of new-paradigm thinking.
Marianne Williamson
I think that every moment you succumb to cynicism, you're taking energy away from change.
Marianne Williamson
Change is in the air, as old patterns fall away and new energies are emerging. Consciously release what needs to be released, and welcome with a full embrace the newness you've prayed for and so richly deserve.
Marianne Williamson
The bottom line in love is not whether someone loves you, but whether someone chooses you.
Marianne Williamson
In any moment, in any circumstance, a miracle will occur when we align ourselves with truth.
Marianne Williamson
We arrogantly assume that the nervous system doesn't really need to be coaxed into romance. That romance comes from some other place.
Marianne Williamson
Maturity includes the recognition that no one is going to see anything in us that we don't see in ourselves. Stop waiting for a producer. Produce yourself.
Marianne Williamson
We have to wage peace. That's the law of the spirit is the waging of peace, because if we simply seek to manage the effects of hatred, which does need to be done, of course. But if all we do is manage the effects of hatred, then hatred will simply stalk us the next decade or the next generation. We need to dismantle hatred itself.
Marianne Williamson
Relationships never end, because they're of the mind only bodies can separate. When you're missing someone, know it just means that on a soul level they've come to visit.
Marianne Williamson
When we surrender to God, we let go of our attachment to how things happen on the outside, and we become more concerned with what happens on the inside.
Marianne Williamson
