More quotes by Marianne Williamson
I think daily life is where the lessons come in - that's where the tests and the growth come in.
Marianne Williamson
Whomever it is you were born to be, whatever your soul was coded to accomplish, whatever lessons you were born to learn, now is the time to get serious and get going.
Marianne Williamson
My hope is that I'm getting better and wiser. With every book, I have more of myself to pour onto the page.
Marianne Williamson
The past doesn't determine your future unless you carry it with you into the present. Forgiving yourself and others, you free the universe to begin again at any moment.
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
With every thought we think, we either summon or block a miracle.
Marianne Williamson
Women are still in emotional bondage as long as we need to worry that we might have to make a choice between being heard and being loved.
Marianne Williamson
I think there is a place where self-awareness becomes self-preoccupation if you don't take what you have discovered and bring it to bear on the conditions of the world.
Marianne Williamson
The wisdom that comes from having experienced heartbreak cannot be bequeathed it can only be gained through experience. And having truly felt it, we are far more likely to have compassion for others. Anything that takes us close to true compassion takes us closer to what will one day be an experience of even greater joy.
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
Things don't spiral out of control when we surrender them they spiral out of control when we try to control them!
Marianne Williamson
Do what you love. Do what makes your heart sing. And NEVER do it for the money, Go to work to spread joy.
Marianne Williamson
We shouldn’t use our own upset as an excuse for not helping.
Marianne Williamson
Once you know that every moment and every person and every situation has something to teach you, you're a student all day. You know it's the depth of your observation that is the issue - not how much the world has to show you.
Marianne Williamson
There is, inside all our heads, the ego’s rabid attack dog. It is purely vicious toward others and toward ourselves as well. Learning to control that dog, and ultimately to end its life, is the process and purpose of enlightened relationships.
Marianne Williamson
There is an old cliche, 'You can see the glass half empty, or you can see it half full.' You can focus on what's wrong in your life, or you can focus on what's right. But whatever you focus on, you're going to get more of. Creation is an extension of thought. Think lack, and you get lack. Think abundance, and you get more.
Marianne Williamson
I don't think pain is a prerequisite for growth, but on the other hand, most of us choose very painful ways to learn.
Marianne Williamson
Kennedy's assassination was the opening salvo in the social revolution of the sixties. In some ways, perhaps, Princess Diana and Mother Teresa dying when they did, and how they did, represent the opening salvos of a social revolution in the nineties.
Marianne Williamson
The spiritual commitment is to make every situation an object of devotional connection.
Marianne Williamson
What a Beethoven, Shakespeare or Picasso has done is not create something, so much as they have accessed that place within themselves from which they could express that which has been created by God.
Marianne Williamson
