A healthy, vital society is not one in which we all agree. It is one in which those who disagree can do so with honor and respect for other people's opinions... and an appreciation of our shared humanity.

More quotes by Marianne Williamson
The real axis of social change is not horizontal, but vertical. We don’t need a whole bunch of people gathering to think shallow thoughts together. What we need is for as many people as are ready to go there, to gather and think deep thoughts together.
Marianne Williamson
God isn't a noun but a process...a continual, infinitely creative outpouring of love and light onto all living things.
Marianne Williamson
Enter any moment devoid of agenda, with an absence of posturing, and with your only intention being to send love to everyone you meet or even think of... Happiness, miracles and inner peace will follow.
Marianne Williamson
The pain itself is a product or a reflection of how I am interpreting whatever it is that is causing me pain.
Marianne Williamson
When we're in our right minds, we are hopeful. Because the arc of the moral universe does bend toward justice, nature does bend toward healing, and the heart does bend toward love.
Marianne Williamson
Behind every fear, there is a miracle waiting.
Marianne Williamson
If you're getting your guidance about who you are and what to do with your life only from the external world, then by definition you'll be led away from your authentic truth. Your authentic truth isn't in the material world. It's counterintuitive, but you have more power in the world when you know you're not of it.
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
Nature is infinitely creative. It is always producing the possibility of new beginnings.
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
I don't feel there is any spiritual or metaphysical justification for turning our backs on human suffering.
Marianne Williamson
I am a glorious child of God. I am joyful, serene, positive, and loving.
Marianne Williamson
Nervous breakdowns can be highly underrated methods of spiritual transformation.
Marianne Williamson
You don't need a new life, just a new lens through which to view the one you have.
Marianne Williamson
I feel that the social revolution of the sixties is like a revolving door that came our way, and then left. It's back again.
Marianne Williamson
There is simply too much unnecessary suffering in our world. And we should see that as a national security risk, by the way. Given enough time, desperate people will tend to do desperate things. At a certain point you won't be able to build enough prisons or enough bombs to eradicate the effects of all that violence inside so many hearts.
Marianne Williamson
The only thing we have to give to the world is our own grasp on it.
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
As long as we remain vigilant at building our internal abundance—an abundance of integrity, an abundance of forgiveness, an abundance of service, an abundance of love—then external lack is bound to be temporary.
Marianne Williamson
Unless we can be like children, we can't be happy.
Marianne Williamson
