More quotes by Marianne Williamson
Sometimes when we don't know the answer, it's time to simply be with the question.
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
The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive.
Marianne Williamson
You can live your life out of a circumstance or you can live your life out of a vision.
Marianne Williamson
I'm certainly not saying anything new, and I'm not even saying anything all that different from what everyone else I know is saying right now - I'm saying what millions of people are saying. I'm just saying it publicly.
Marianne Williamson
With every prayer and every thought of love, we release the light that will cast out darkness. One light alone seems small and weak, but no one's light is ever alone, for all our lights are part of God.
Marianne Williamson
Behind every dark cloud there is an every-shining sun. Just wait. In time, the cloud will pass.
Marianne Williamson
I feel that if your soul was branded by the sixties, you never lost the brand. It's like going into a nightclub and having your hand stamped so that you don't have to come back but you can come back.
Marianne Williamson
We are dominated on this planet by a fear-based rather than a love-based thought system. Enlightenment involves relinquishing the thought system based on fear and instead accepting a thought system based on love.
Marianne Williamson
A level of anxiety and tension and outright fear that so many people have felt, not only during the recession but during this slow economic recovery since. This made me very much want to up the conversation about how miracle-minded thinking applies to that area of life.
Marianne Williamson
If you're getting your guidance about who you are and what to do with your life only from the external world, then by definition you'll be led away from your authentic truth. Your authentic truth isn't in the material world. It's counterintuitive, but you have more power in the world when you know you're not of it.
Marianne Williamson
The key to a successful career is realizing that it's not separate from the rest of your life, but is rather an extension of your most basic self. And your most basic self is love.
Marianne Williamson
If you went to live in the Himalayas and everyone was lovely there, I'm sure it would be fairly easy to be a spiritual master.
Marianne Williamson
In the area of work and money, we have one of the most intense gaps between fear-based and love-based thought. It's not that a miracle mindset applies to work and money any more than it applies to anything else rather, it applies there no less than anywhere else.
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
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
Birth is violent, whether it be the birth of a child or the birth of an idea.
Marianne Williamson
I think it's unfortunate how many people today try to build up their own careers by denigrating the work of others.
Marianne Williamson
Increasing meaning and joy on the planet is the ultimate goal because within that space all evil is cast out.
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.
