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.
Marianne Williamson

More quotes by Marianne Williamson
God is the water, and you are the faucet.
Marianne Williamson
In our natural state, we are glorious beings. In the world of illusion, we are lost and imprisoned, slaves to our appetites and our will to false power.
Marianne Williamson
Every time we're about to criticize someone for what we think they did wrong, let's first remember to thank them for the things they did right. And to mean it to sincerely affirm them. Then, if there's still a problem that needs to be shared, it will come from a completely different energy -- and actually be heard!
Marianne Williamson
We will make love an art and we will love like artists.
Marianne Williamson
The miracle-minded perception would be to make happiness itself our goal and to relinquish the thought that we know what that would look like.
Marianne Williamson
There is no such thing as a faithless person we either have faith in the power of love, or faith in the power of fear. For faith is an aspect of consciousness. Have faith in love, and fear will lose its power over you. Have faith in forgiveness, and your self-hatred will fall away. Have faith in miracles, and they will come to you.
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
The only work that will ultimately bring any good to any of us is the work of contributing to the healing of the world.
Marianne Williamson
The body IS a miracle, after all.
Marianne Williamson
We don't ask God for too much in fact, we ask for too little. Turn to Him for everything. Give everything to God.
Marianne Williamson
Whatever we focus on is bound to expand. Where we see the negative, we call forth more negative. And where we see the positive, we call forth more positive. Having loved and lost, I now love more passionately. Having won and lost, I now win more soberly. Having tasted the bitter, I now savor the sweet.
Marianne Williamson
Think of your work life therefore, not as separate from your spiritual life but as central to your spiritual life. Whatever your business, it is your ministry.
Marianne Williamson
In every community, there is work to be done. In every nation, there are wounds to heal. In every heart, there is the power to do it.
Marianne Williamson
Some of us believe humanity should be in divine partnership with nature, some people believe that man has been given by God the right to have dominion over nature. But since even they say that we should be good stewards, that right there should be the common ground.
Marianne Williamson
Where there is peace, there cannot be chaos the two cannot coexist at the same time.
Marianne Williamson
People who hate often do so with great conviction. What we need are more people who love with conviction.
Marianne Williamson
You can live in your total potential creative capacity in an instant-with your heart open to give and receive love.
Marianne Williamson
In each of us, there lies a divine connection to a power more powerful than hate or violence. Today is the day to attune to that power and use it on behalf of peace on earth.
Marianne Williamson
Every ending is a new beginning. Through the grace of God, we can always start again. (Page 120.)
Marianne Williamson
All things show up in the world according to the purposes we ascribe to them.
