More quotes by Marianne Williamson
I just want to write books or give talks which, if I were in the audience or I were the reader, I would appreciate.
Marianne Williamson
You receive the light through what you read, through what you hear in meditation, or through some spiritual practice.
Marianne Williamson
Fear is a psychic tyrant that has no intention of letting its slave go free. It will say whatever it needs to say to confuse your thinking... It will always seek to preserve itself.
Marianne Williamson
Kennedy's assassination was the opening salvo in the social revolution of the sixties. In some ways, perhaps, Princess Diana and Mother Teresa dying when they did, and how they did, represent the opening salvos of a social revolution in the nineties.
Marianne Williamson
I believe we are shown the path that is right as soon as we ask for it. Then we must live in the world and in some way express what we have learned.
Marianne Williamson
What emerges from the silence is the deafening sound of an old world disintegrating.
Marianne Williamson
If you are dealing with life from a low-level sensibility, the Internet can be a tool for manifesting that. But if you're dealing with life from the highest sensibility, it can also be your tool for manifesting that. The simple reason is that it doesn't cost money.
Marianne Williamson
It's difficult to be alive in America today and truly be in denial anymore. It's not hip to be unconscious or uninvolved. One of our great strengths is that we're an optimistic people, but that doesn't mean we don't have sad days.
Marianne Williamson
It is absolutely a relationship with food that is a displaced relationship with God. And that displaced relationship with God takes two forms: our availability to other people and our availability to our own thoughts and feelings.
Marianne Williamson
In asking for miracles, we are seeking a practical goal: a return to inner peace. We’re not asking for something outside us to change, but for something inside us to change. We’re looking for a softer orientation to life.
Marianne Williamson
Our deepest need is to be seen.
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
Change is in the air, as old patterns fall away and new energies are emerging. Consciously release what needs to be released, and welcome with a full embrace the newness you've prayed for and so richly deserve.
Marianne Williamson
People tend to have a government that reflects the level of consciousness of the majority of people who voted.
Marianne Williamson
There is no greater gift to future generations than that we do the work God has asked us to do: love one another, that the world might be made right.
Marianne Williamson
At midlife, you're pregnant with the best self you can be - someone who has learned enough from both successes and failures to add up to a fine human being.
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
The pain itself is a product or a reflection of how I am interpreting whatever it is that is causing me pain.
Marianne Williamson
The voices of fear are so loud today. The voices of love should never shout, but neither should they whisper - not at a time like this.
Marianne Williamson
Sadness is just a place on the map. Don't try to avoid it, resist it or escape through substances. Settle it, allow it, and it will go.
