More quotes by Marianne Williamson

Marianne Williamson
The key to a successful career is realizing that it's not separate from the rest of your life, but is rather an extension of your most basic self. And your most basic self is love.
Marianne Williamson
I feel that if your soul was branded by the sixties, you never lost the brand. It's like going into a nightclub and having your hand stamped so that you don't have to come back but you can come back.
Marianne Williamson
Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.
Marianne Williamson

Marianne Williamson
I can't say what most people are doing. I can only say what I am doing.

The moment of surrender is not when life is over. It's when it begins
Marianne Williamson

Marianne Williamson
To be a princess is to play at life. To be a queen is to be a serious player...The purpose of life as a woman is to ascend to the throne and rule with heart.
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
You are emerging from the cocoon of your former self. There are no limits to the extent of the transformation that's possible for you.
Marianne Williamson
It is not your job to seek for love. It IS your job to seek within yourself all the barriers against its coming.
Marianne Williamson
The media establishment senses that the boats are coming and it has taken it upon itself to stand on those beaches and do everything it can to shoot the soldiers on the boats. They know the beaches will be taken.
Marianne Williamson
Unless we can be like children, we can't be happy.
Marianne Williamson
Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it feels more painful than the wound we suffered, to forgive the one that inflicted it. And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness.
Marianne Williamson
Only God’s thoughts, or love, is actually real. So when we separate ourselves from that love, we’re actually not thinking at all: we’re hallucinating.
Marianne Williamson
We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us it is in everyone and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
