Ego says, Once everything falls into place, I'll feel peace. Spirit says, Find your peace, and then everything will fall into place.
Marianne Williamson
Image
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
Image
When love is our guiding light, we can break through barriers to be of loving service to the world. Gaining the courage and confidence to stand up for what you believe in is not always easy, but it's fully within your reach.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Silence is the Sabbath of the soul. Therein we rest, and therein we hear everything.
Marianne Williamson

May my heart be your shelter, and my arms be your home.

Image
Women will not be free until we can speak our minds and our hearts without having to worry that men will crucify us, women will crucify us, the press will crucify us, or our children will be ashamed... Women are still in emotional bondage as long as we feel we have to make a choice between being heard and being loved.

The world we knew as children is still buried within our minds. Our childlike self is the deepest level of our being. It is who we really are, and what is real doesn't go away.

You can learn a lesson the first time, when it's presented in a package that is joyous - or at least palatable. But if you don't learn the lesson the first time, then there will be a second time and a third time. And each time it will just get harder and harder.
Marianne Williamson
Image
I also think the women's movement has unintentionally contributed to the dishonoring of motherhood. It happened because we made such a big deal about our right to go out into the world.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Relationships never end, because they're of the mind only bodies can separate. When you're missing someone, know it just means that on a soul level they've come to visit.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Sometimes sadness is appropriate. Not something to run from, not something to numb...just something to feel.
Marianne Williamson
Image
We need more than a new politics what we need is a new worldview. We need a fundamentally different bottom line.
Marianne Williamson
Image
The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive.
Marianne Williamson
Image
You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure about you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us.

Angels light the way. Angels do not begrudge anyone anything, angels do not tear down, angels do not compete, angels do not constrict their hearts, angels do not fear. That's why they sing and that's how they fly. We, of course, are only angels in disguise.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Think of one person who you are tempted for any reason to withhold love from, and pray for their happiness. In that moment your pain will stop.
Marianne Williamson
Image
The holy child is waiting to be born in every instant, not just once a year.

Obviously, I don't want to minimize the patriarchal nature of our media, our government and our culture as a whole. But I think it's our refusal as women to own our power that is our biggest problem, both individually and collectively. The linchpin that holds the current system in place is the slumber of women.
