More quotes by Marianne Williamson
Gender or skin color does not of itself determine the nature of a person's thinking.
Marianne Williamson
I want to be a cheerleader for women who have never even considered running for office or being involved in a campaign, but who in the quietness of their hearts might think, 'Why not me?'
Marianne Williamson
Spiritual progress is like a detoxification.
Marianne Williamson
To the extent to which we believe in this world, we are heir to the laws which rule this place.
Marianne Williamson
Dear God, Please send to me the spirit of Your peace. Then send, dear Lord, the spirit of peace from me to all the world. Amen.
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
Actually, who are you not to be?
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
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
Maturity includes the recognition that no one is going to see anything in us that we don't see in ourselves. Stop waiting for a producer. Produce yourself.
Marianne Williamson
The power to rethink a situation is our greatest tool for transforming the world. This notion is taking hold in medicine, in business, in education. But not in politics and the media. They are the last holdouts of old-paradigm thinking.
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
The point of life is not who falls down. The point is who gets up and how you do it.
Marianne Williamson
As we become purer channels for God's light, we develop an appetite for the sweetness that is possible in this world. A miracle worker is not geared toward fighting the world that is, but toward creating the world that could be.
Marianne Williamson
You get to the point where you realize that unless you, yourself, become more of the change, you can't create too much change.
Marianne Williamson
Fear is not life-giving enough to sustain itself. We can move in the direction of fear only so long before it brings us to our knees, or to our end.
Marianne Williamson
Enchanted partnership begins with the conscious understanding, on the part of two people, that the purpose of their relationship is not so much material as spiritual, and the internal skills demanded by it are prodigious.
Marianne Williamson
Hope is born of participation in hopeful solutions.
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
I feel that people who haven't read my books and haven't heard me lecture - who don't in fact know what my work is about - have been very hard on me. There is an expression in Alcoholics Anonymous called contempt prior to investigation. I feel many people practice contempt prior to investigation.
