Some people think it's naive to think we can make love our new bottom line. What I believe is naive is thinking human civilization as we know it will survive another two hundred years if we do not.

Nothing is so dangerous for our security as large groups of desperate people.
Marianne Williamson
All things show up in the world according to the purposes we ascribe to them.
Marianne Williamson
Dear God, Please send to me the spirit of Your peace. Then send, dear Lord, the spirit of peace from me to all the world. Amen.

Any time we read a newspaper or take any look at the world around us, we are aware of the cruelty and violence that dominates our world.
Marianne Williamson
To me, liberation doesn't mean that I can think just like a man. Real liberation means that I can think, act, and be like a woman and receive equal respect, honor, and compensation.
Marianne Williamson
If a person is fearful, it is a fearful time. If a person is hopeful, it's a hopeful time. If you look at world events one way, fear is reasonable. If you look at the world another way, hope is justified.
Marianne Williamson
Seek more opportunities to put more love in the world.
Marianne Williamson
Conviction is a force multiplier. If you want something, claim it in your gut. The universe itself responds to your inner certainty.
Marianne Williamson
Everything we do is infused with the energy with which we do it. If we're frantic, life will be frantic. If we're peaceful, life will be peaceful. And so our goal in any situation becomes inner peace.
Marianne Williamson
We are always pregnant with a truer version of ourselves.
Marianne Williamson

Marianne Williamson
Every time we're about to criticize someone for what we think they did wrong, let's first remember to thank them for the things they did right. And to mean it to sincerely affirm them. Then, if there's still a problem that needs to be shared, it will come from a completely different energy -- and actually be heard!
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
Obviously, our political system is profoundly corrupted by, among other things, the influence of money. But, at a deeper level, the current structure is flawed because it looks to citizens for only two things - votes and money. I don't think we will see any healing until citizens are viewed in a whole new way.
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
Imagine that anything is possible, and name the most amazing thing that could happen in 2013.
Marianne Williamson
The more mature we are, the more receptive we are.
Marianne Williamson
We resist Joy on this planet more than we resist war.
