More quotes by Marianne Williamson
Much like a GPS, love re-calibrates itself if you've made a wrong turn.
Marianne Williamson
Love is who we are, and when we deviate from that love we're deviating from our ultimate, essential, eternal reality.
Marianne Williamson
We're hallucinating. And that's what this world is: a mass hallucination, where fear seems more real than love. Fear is an illusion. Our craziness, paranoia, anxiety and trauma are literally all imagined.
Marianne Williamson
Every change is a challenge to become who we really are.
Marianne Williamson
I trust life not because I trust the world, but because I trust the God who lives in my heart.
Marianne Williamson
There is no way that carrying fifty or sixty extra pounds is easy on your heart, your lungs, or your liver. That's a fact. Every person in the world, no matter what size, shape, or form they are, deserves respect and love. But that doesn't mean we are supposed to pretend that something is healthy when in fact it is not.
Marianne Williamson
Truth will always reassert itself, given a symbolic three days. Three days represents the time it takes between the crucifixion and the resurrection, between an open-hearted response to hurt and the experience of rebirth that will always follow.
Marianne Williamson
We are always impacting the world...through our presence, energy, interactions - what kind of impact are we having?
Marianne Williamson
When a woman gives birth, two are born: a baby from the womb of its mother and a woman from the womb of her former existence.
Marianne Williamson
Sometimes sadness is appropriate. Not something to run from, not something to numb...just something to feel.
Marianne Williamson
You can live in your total potential creative capacity in an instant-with your heart open to give and receive love.
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
A certain desperation is usually necessary before we're ready for God... Until your knees finally hit the floor, you're just playing at life, and on some level you're scared because you know you're just playing. The moment of surrender is not when life is over. It's when it begins
Marianne Williamson
Love and fear represent two different lenses through which to view the world. Which I choose to use will determine what I think I see.
Marianne Williamson
Only what I'm not giving is what is lacking in any situation
Marianne Williamson
Take stock of your thoughts and behavior. Each night ask yourself, when were you negative when you could have been positive? When did you withhold love when you might have given it? When did you play a neurotic game instead of behaving in a powerful way? Use this process to self-correct.
Marianne Williamson
If we do not like what we see in the world, we must face what we don't like in ourselves. As we change, the world will change with us.
Marianne Williamson
The soul force we need in America today, more than any other, is the spirit of atonement. We need to humble ourselves before God and ask forgiveness for the things we have done wrong. We need to ask God to forgive us for our arrogance.
Marianne Williamson
The solution to low self-esteem is to get over yourself and get a higher purpose.
Marianne Williamson
Yes, we see that there are problems in the world. But we believe in a universal force that, when activated by the human heart, has the power to make all things right.
