More quotes by Marianne Williamson
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
When we surrender to God, we let go of our attachment to how things happen on the outside, and we become more concerned with what happens on the inside.
Marianne Williamson
Know that there's enough room for everyone to be passionate, creative & successful. In fact, there's more than room for everyone there is a need for everyone.
Marianne Williamson
There is, inside all our heads, the ego’s rabid attack dog. It is purely vicious toward others and toward ourselves as well. Learning to control that dog, and ultimately to end its life, is the process and purpose of enlightened relationships.
Marianne Williamson
The masculine DOES while the feminine IS. Major in the feminine, but minor in the masculine.
Marianne Williamson
In the area of work and money, we have one of the most intense gaps between fear-based and love-based thought. It's not that a miracle mindset applies to work and money any more than it applies to anything else rather, it applies there no less than anywhere else.
Marianne Williamson
We have to wage peace. That's the law of the spirit is the waging of peace, because if we simply seek to manage the effects of hatred, which does need to be done, of course. But if all we do is manage the effects of hatred, then hatred will simply stalk us the next decade or the next generation. We need to dismantle hatred itself.
Marianne Williamson
Our kingdom is our life, and our life is our kingdom. We are all meant to rule from a glorious place. When God is on the throne, then so are we. When God is in exile, our lands are at war and our kingdoms are in chaos.
Marianne Williamson
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.
Marianne Williamson
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.
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
Become more accepting. With every interaction, surrender any tendency to judge another person. Pray for a more accepting heart.
Marianne Williamson
Love knows how to form itself. God will do his work if we do ours. Our job is to prepare ourselves for love. When we do, love finds us every time.
Marianne Williamson
Silence is the Sabbath of the soul. Therein we rest, and therein we hear everything.
Marianne Williamson
We need to recognize that part our political problem is that we do not participate effectively, that we suffer from a kind of mental slumber.
Marianne Williamson
Conscious awareness is the source of our healing...Only when you say the truth can the truth set you free. This is not a negative process, but at times it is a difficult process.
Marianne Williamson
As difficult as it can be to find genuine inner calm, it is the key to creating peace in the world as we know it. The world will not change until we do, and there is nothing the world can deliver to us that will give us the peace we crave. Peace comes not from the world, but from God.
Marianne Williamson
Anybody can be heard. Anyone can express their truths. And communication is possible without the confines of the body.
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 problem is not that we don't have power, so much as that we tend to not use the power we have.
Marianne Williamson
