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
There are people today who look to fear to take us out of fear. But I believe that there are many, many more people who would look to love.
Marianne Williamson
By the time something reaches the cover of Time magazine, it's old news anyway.
Marianne Williamson
In any moment, in any circumstance, a miracle will occur when we align ourselves with truth.
Marianne Williamson
Enchanted partnership begins with the conscious understanding, on the part of two people, that the purpose of their relationship is not so much material as spiritual, and the internal skills demanded by it are prodigious.
Marianne Williamson
The highest level of creativity consists in being, not doing. When the being is intense enough, when the words are spoken enough, when the thoughts are thought enough, the doing will automatically follow.
Marianne Williamson
As you get older, life gets harder if you're not applying spiritual truths.
Marianne Williamson
Your life has purpose as long as you dedicate it to love. It's not what we do but who we are that forms our biggest contribution.
Marianne Williamson
We aren't bodies at all who we are is the love inside us, and it is that love alone that determines our value. When our minds are filled with light, there is no room for darkness.
Marianne Williamson
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
Spiritual growth increases our sense of what's possible. And as we sense new possibility, we can step into that possibility. With every word, every thought, every action, we choose what we wish to call forth in life.
Marianne Williamson
I do believe 50 is the new 40 and 60 is the new 50. Hell, maybe 60 can be the new 40, I don't know. I believe that when we give ourselves permission, we can live with an excitement and heat and passion that most women in previous generations were unable to attain.
Marianne Williamson
All things show up in the world according to the purposes we ascribe to them.
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
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
Sometimes, when I talk to someone who has just been diagnosed with cancer or some other illness, I'll remind them: If you were honest with yourself, you were depressed before this happened. And if this were over you would be happy for a couple of weeks, a couple of months, and then something else would come along.
Marianne Williamson
Forgiveness is the ultimate preventive medicine, as well as the greatest healer.
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
The soul force we need in America today, more than any other, is the spirit of atonement. We need to humble ourselves before God and ask forgiveness for the things we have done wrong. We need to ask God to forgive us for our arrogance.
Marianne Williamson
The universe is an infinite opportunity creation machine. In every instant, the possibility of greater possibility is programmed into the nature of things. Love creates the conduit through which new possibility enters our experience, and lovelessness keeps it at bay.
Marianne Williamson
We need not wait for the world to become more mystical the world is mystical. Our problem is not that the world lacks magic our problem is that we don't believe in its magic. We do not show up fully for life, and then wonder why life is not showing up more fully for us.
Marianne Williamson
