Our deepest need is to be seen.
Marianne Williamson
Image
If we never take a risk, we'll never know the parts of ourselves that would have emerged if we had.
Marianne Williamson
Image
I do believe 50 is the new 40 and 60 is the new 50. Hell, maybe 60 can be the new 40, I don't know. I believe that when we give ourselves permission, we can live with an excitement and heat and passion that most women in previous generations were unable to attain.

Image
There's only one of us here: What we give to others, we give to ourselves. What we withhold from others, we withhold from ourselves. In any moment, when we choose fear instead of love, we deny ourselves the experience of Paradise.
Marianne Williamson
Image
The voices of fear are so loud today. The voices of love should never shout, but neither should they whisper - not at a time like this.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Imagine everything you're experiencing now being a hundred times more wonderful. Bad turns good good turns great. THAT IS WHAT IS POSSIBLE.
Marianne Williamson

The holy child is waiting to be born in every instant, not just once a year.
Marianne Williamson
Image
I'm not bowled over by how different all the world's religions are - I'm bowled over by how similar they are.
Marianne Williamson
Image
We must seek to be intellectually inclusive, just as we seek to be culturally inclusive. Ideas come and go - that's what makes a free society so vital.
Marianne Williamson
Image
I think the greatest gift we can give our children is to show them that devotion to God's purposes - love for all beings - is the center of all right living.
Marianne Williamson
Image
We are not held back by the love we didn't receive in the past, but by the love we're not extending in the present.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Forgiveness is the choice to see people as they are now. When we're mad at people, we're angry because of something they said or did before this moment. By letting go of the past, we make room for miracles to replace our grievances.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Every thought creates form on some level and all that our physical experience is - is a reflection of our thoughts.
Marianne Williamson
Image
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
Your life has purpose as long as you dedicate it to love. It's not what we do but who we are that forms our biggest contribution.
Marianne Williamson
Image
I write and speak about personal and spiritual growth. One week I write about illness and another week I speak about relationships and another week I write about work and money and another week I speak to people with obesity issues. I write about whatever wounds seem to cry out for more enlightened solutions, and the love that heals them all.

The Goddess doesn't enter us from outside she emerges from deep within. She is not held back by what happened in the past. She is conceived in consciousness, born in love, and nurtured by higher thinking. She is integrity and value, created and sustained by the hard work of personal growth and the discipline of a life lived actively in hope.

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.

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.

I have heard it said that living out of our vision is more powerful than living out of our circumstance.
