More quotes by Marianne Williamson
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you.
Marianne Williamson
Sometimes when everything has totally apart, the meaningless preoccupations that so often dominate our lives simply fall away. And what is left is who we really are, and who we really are is compassionate and intelligent and wise.
Marianne Williamson
I think that's what we all want on this earth - to feel that at some level we have connected with other human beings.
Marianne Williamson
Angry people cannot create a peaceful planet
Marianne Williamson
I find being a mother harder than I though it was going to be. That is a tremendous revelation for me personally. Much more time, more care, more attention and more effort needs to be spent on care for the children. That will save the world at large.
Marianne Williamson
Family... a group experience of love and support.
Marianne Williamson
Pleasure can be used to enslave a people just as effectively as pain.
Marianne Williamson
We find our happiness to the extent to which we use our minds to bless the world, for that is the natural use of the mind. It is the reason we were born.
Marianne Williamson
I take very seriously this notion that my highest job is to live a better life, all the time and to the best of my ability. I need to monitor my own progress - take my own inventory - and clean my own closet. I am trying to do all that.
Marianne Williamson
Depression might have chosen you, but you don't have to choose it back. Sometimes happiness comes with bootstraps, but so what? Pull 'em up. Choose joy.
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
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
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
People want the nation to transform in the same way they want their own lives to transform. If you're interested in transforming your life, you can't just transform some things. You can't try to fix some things, but sweep other things under the rug because it's too hard to face them. And the same is true for a nation.
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
The role of a leader is not to rule over other people, but to hold a space for their own genius.
Marianne Williamson
People don't live in Los Angeles because we are tied to the same old, same old. We live in Los Angeles because of the intoxicating energy of new beginnings that permeate our city.
Marianne Williamson
We need to recognize that part our political problem is that we do not participate effectively, that we suffer from a kind of mental slumber.
Marianne Williamson
Our religious institutions have far too often become handmaidens of the status quo, while the genuine religious experience is anything but that. True religion is by nature disruptive of what has been, giving birth to the eternally new.
Marianne Williamson
No matter what is happening now, events will ultimately bend toward love the way a flower bends toward sunlight.
Marianne Williamson
