Fill you mind with the meaningless stimuli of a world preoccupied with meaningless things, and it will not be easy to feel peace in your heart.
Marianne Williamson
Image
You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure about you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us.
Marianne Williamson
Image
The real axis of social change is not horizontal, but vertical. We don’t need a whole bunch of people gathering to think shallow thoughts together. What we need is for as many people as are ready to go there, to gather and think deep thoughts together.

Image
Think of the mystical three days between the crucifixion and the resurrection as the time it takes for a situation to change once spirit has infused our consciousness. As we come to look at an experience differently, in time in begins to transform.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Embryos turn into babies buds turn into blossoms acorns turn into oak trees. The same programming that exists in them exists in each of us - to manifest our highest potential. What is the difference between those things and us? That we can say no...So today, say yes.

When you carry yesterday's thinking into today, you program tomorrow to be like yesterday.
Marianne Williamson
Image
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.

The mystical journey drives us into ourselves, to a sacred flame at our center.
Marianne Williamson
Image
When you understand spiritual law, then you realize that everything you give, good or bad, will in fact come back to you tenfold and that's just the way it is. You give someone flowers and the person you are ultimately giving to is yourself.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Silence is the Sabbath of the soul. Therein we rest, and therein we hear everything.
Marianne Williamson
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Our past is a story existing only in our minds. Look, analyze, understand, and forgive. Then, as quickly as possible, chuck it.
Marianne Williamson
Image
I think moral outrage is born not of anger but of love. It comes from the highest in us, not from a low-level sense of anger or cynicism.
Marianne Williamson
Image
If you think humanity can get itself out of all this mess without divine help, then you're not being hopeful - you're hallucinating.
Marianne Williamson
Image
I don't feel there is any spiritual or metaphysical justification for turning our backs on human suffering.
Marianne Williamson
Image
If you are not grieving, you are not conscious. But if you are not rejoicing in the possibilities of how this could all change, then you are not looking through the filter of the greatest spiritual perspicacity.

Image
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.

Angels light the way. Angels do not begrudge anyone anything, angels do not tear down, angels do not compete, angels do not constrict their hearts, angels do not fear. That's why they sing and that's how they fly. We, of course, are only angels in disguise.
