More quotes by Marianne Williamson
You don't have to be a spiritual seeker, you can be a businessman dealing with the revolution in computers. You could be a congressman, or a scientist. No matter what area of life and endeavor we are in we are seeing the signs of new-paradigm thinking.
Marianne Williamson
I believe that the spirit of God enters into the details and if we ask for guidance we will be led to the places where we can learn most fully because we can be most joyful. If I'm in a place that's lonely, I think God has one or two things to say. Extend your hand in service so that you might meet people or go somewhere else - or both.
Marianne Williamson
Gandhi said the end is inherent in the means, which means you cannot create any more peace than you yourself have attained. An angry generation will not bring peace.
Marianne Williamson
You can't remove that layer of pain by just saying, Okay, I'm not going to wallow in it. The only way to remove that layer of pain is to face what it says and to recognize it as the look in the mirror that it is, reflecting the things you did that you wish you hadn't done and the things you didn't do that you wish you had done.
Marianne Williamson
I just want to write books or give talks which, if I were in the audience or I were the reader, I would appreciate.
Marianne Williamson
In any moment, in any circumstance, a miracle will occur when we align ourselves with truth.
Marianne Williamson
For what we engage, we transform. And what we engage with our hearts is transformed forever.
Marianne Williamson
Sometimes, when I talk to someone who has just been diagnosed with cancer or some other illness, I'll remind them: If you were honest with yourself, you were depressed before this happened. And if this were over you would be happy for a couple of weeks, a couple of months, and then something else would come along.
Marianne Williamson
I've never seen service as separate from my spiritual practice or my spiritual teaching.
Marianne Williamson
Do not fear. Look beyond what's dying to what's being born.
Marianne Williamson
What you do comes from what you think.
Marianne Williamson
We can't look to the world to restore our worth we're here to restore our worth to the world. The world outside us can reflect our glory, but it cannot create it. It cannot crown us. Only God can crown us, and he already has.
Marianne Williamson
I tell my mother I went to God in spite of my religious education. I feel that my religious education was inadequate, but that doesn't mean that Judaism was inadequate.
Marianne Williamson
Actually, who are you not to be?
Marianne Williamson
You are completely at choice who you will be today in your interactions with others. Compassionate, kind, giving and forgiving will create one set of probabilities angry, judgmental, critical and defensive will create another one altogether.
Marianne Williamson
All things show up in the world according to the purposes we ascribe to them.
Marianne Williamson
We tend to have tremendous faith in the power of our disasters and far too little faith in the power of miracles.
Marianne Williamson
I don't feel there is any spiritual or metaphysical justification for turning our backs on human suffering.
Marianne Williamson
Once you get to your forties or fifties in this society, very few people haven't had at least one body blow - financial, bankruptcy, divorce, relationship disaster, addiction, trouble with a child, trouble with a parent. Most people take some blow.
Marianne Williamson
Relationship are part of the vast plan for our enlightenment.
