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.

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
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.
Marianne Williamson
When somebody comes up to you and shows you yellow underlining of something you wrote, that's such a high. It's a connection to others.
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
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
Every day can be like Christmas in its love and its peace if our hearts open up and make room for love. The holy child is waiting to be born in every instant, not just once a year.
Marianne Williamson
If you know what makes one person's life change, then you know what makes a nation change - because a nation is simply a large group of individuals.
Marianne Williamson
In every community, there is work to be done. In every nation, there are wounds to heal. In every heart, there is the power to do it.
Marianne Williamson
The teenager begins to realize he or she really does want to be part of a community, really does want to have good relationships with others, really does want to create something truly good with his or her life. The teenager comes to understand just being smart and just being privileged are not enough.
Marianne Williamson
If you went to live in the Himalayas and everyone was lovely there, I'm sure it would be fairly easy to be a spiritual master.
Marianne Williamson
Imagine everything you're experiencing now being a hundred times more wonderful. Bad turns good good turns great. THAT IS WHAT IS POSSIBLE.
Marianne Williamson
It isn't courageous to go forth when you don't know the dangers. But it's very courageous to go forth when you do.
Marianne Williamson
Enlightenment is the only real antidote to the world's despair.
Marianne Williamson
Forgiveness is the choice to see people as they are now. When we're mad at people, we're angry because of something they said or did before this moment. By letting go of the past, we make room for miracles to replace our grievances.
Marianne Williamson
Sometimes when everything has totally apart, the meaningless preoccupations that so often dominate our lives simply fall away. And what is left is who we really are, and who we really are is compassionate and intelligent and wise.
Marianne Williamson
I believe there is an evolutionary impulse toward good that is etched on every human heart. It is placed there by the hand of God.
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
Making our goal anything other than peace is emotionally self-destructive.
Marianne Williamson
A lot of us simply disengaged from politics altogether, but then we woke up and went wow, wait a minute. Why does that insane conversation get to dominate? Who made those people the creators of the conversation? And how can we start a new one?
Marianne Williamson
Sometimes a miracle is a change in material conditions, such as physical healing. At other times, it is a psychological or emotional change.
