More quotes by Marianne Williamson
There is nothing spiritual about complacency.
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
The Real You isn't damaged goods. The Real You is the light of the universe.
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
Problems come about when we try to direct the flow of the universe rather than allow it to reveal its own design. Inherent in that design is a love for all living things.
Marianne Williamson
We were all born carrying a promise -- a promise to make the world better -- and there's a yearning to make good on that promise that none of us can suppress forever.
Marianne Williamson
When a woman rises up in glory, her energy is magnetic and her sense of possibility contagious.
Marianne Williamson
Fear is not life-giving enough to sustain itself. We can move in the direction of fear only so long before it brings us to our knees, or to our end.
Marianne Williamson
I don't believe the United States is going through a midlife crisis. The United States is going through an adolescent crisis.
Marianne Williamson
There are clearly times when quieting down and bringing our energy back into ourselves is a step toward inner peace. Yet the most powerful life is not one in which we bring ourselves back to our center when we have spun away from it, but rather one in which we seek to live from that center at all times.
Marianne Williamson
Again--nothing you do or think or wish or make is necessary to establish your worth.
Marianne Williamson
There is a point at which we begin to receive a diminishing return on the accumulation of sacred knowledge unless we use it to at least try to improve the world.
Marianne Williamson
If I had to choose between a narrow-minded woman or a man who was an enlightened thinker, I would vote for the man.
Marianne Williamson
You can't remove that layer of pain by just saying, Okay, I'm not going to wallow in it. The only way to remove that layer of pain is to face what it says and to recognize it as the look in the mirror that it is, reflecting the things you did that you wish you hadn't done and the things you didn't do that you wish you had done.
Marianne Williamson
As you get older, life gets harder if you're not applying spiritual truths.
Marianne Williamson
There will be no peace in the world until there is peace in our hearts.
Marianne Williamson
Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it feels more painful than the wound we suffered, to forgive the one that inflicted it. And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness.
Marianne Williamson
I have heard it said that living out of our vision is more powerful than living out of our circumstance. Holding on to a vision invokes the circumstances by which the vision is achieved. Vision is content material circumstances mere form.
Marianne Williamson
Newtonian physics is over. You don't act on the world to change the world. You realize the world is a projection of your inner self. If you change, the world changes.
Marianne Williamson
I've come to trust not that events will always unfold exactly as I want, but that I will be fine either way. The challenges we face in life are always lessons that serve our soul's growth.
