Atoms are driven by consciousness. In proximity to love, they move in harmonious collaboration with other atoms. When in proximity to fear, they become disharmonious and chaotic. We choose each moment the energy that surrounds us.
Marianne Williamson

Only what I'm not giving is what is lacking in any situation
Marianne Williamson
Image
The biggest problem is our lack of response-ability. That’s what happens when money rather than love is the bottom line. People act like idiots.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Nothing is so dangerous for our security as large groups of desperate people.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Women are still in emotional bondage as long as we need to worry that we might have to make a choice between being heard and being loved.
Marianne Williamson
Image
In a choice between love and fear, choose love.
Marianne Williamson
Image
We find our happiness to the extent to which we use our minds to bless the world, for that is the natural use of the mind. It is the reason we were born.
Marianne Williamson

Image
Pleasure can be used to enslave a people just as effectively as pain.

Image
I think there is a place where self-awareness becomes self-preoccupation if you don't take what you have discovered and bring it to bear on the conditions of the world.
Marianne Williamson
Image
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.

Image
The word politics comes from the Greek politeia which had to do with the citizenry, not the government.
Marianne Williamson
Image
The Light in you is the unalterable truth of who you are. You can deny it and obscure it, but you cannot uncreate it.
Marianne Williamson
Image
We're often afraid of looking at our shadow because we want to avoid the shame or embarrassment that comes along with admitting mistakes.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Every relationship either gives energy to us or withholds energy from us, according to what we give to or withhold from it. And it's not only our behavior toward others, but our very thoughts about them, that builds and/ or destroys relationships.
Marianne Williamson
Image
The universe is an infinite opportunity creation machine. In every instant, the possibility of greater possibility is programmed into the nature of things. Love creates the conduit through which new possibility enters our experience, and lovelessness keeps it at bay.
Marianne Williamson
Image
We need to shift from an economic to a humanitarian organizing principle for human civilization. And women, en masse, should be saying so.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Our problem is not that we don't have power, so much as that we tend to not use the power we have.
