Some people think it's naive to think we can make love our new bottom line. What I believe is naive is thinking human civilization as we know it will survive another two hundred years if we do not.
Marianne Williamson
Image
There are clearly times when quieting down and bringing our energy back into ourselves is a step toward inner peace. Yet the most powerful life is not one in which we bring ourselves back to our center when we have spun away from it, but rather one in which we seek to live from that center at all times.

I think future generations will see the invention of the Internet as having been as important as the invention of the printing press. It’s the democratizing tool of all tools. As long as no one can control the flow of information, then freedom always has a chance.

The masculine DOES while the feminine IS. Major in the feminine, but minor in the masculine.

Our internal state determines our experience of our lives our experiences do not determine our internal state.

I've come to trust not that events will always unfold exactly as I want, but that I will be fine either way. The challenges we face in life are always lessons that serve our soul's growth.

Love is to fear as light is to dark in the presence of one, the other cannot exist. So wherever there is a place of fear in your life, think of one thing - even if it's just a thought you can think-where you can generate love to cast out the fear.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Love in your mind produces love in your life. This is the meaning of Heaven. Fear in your mind produces fear in your life. This is the meaning of hell.
Marianne Williamson
Image
I am a glorious child of God. I am joyful, serene, positive, and loving.
Marianne Williamson
Image
I'm better than I used to be. Better than I was yesterday. But hopefully not as good as I'll be tomorrow.

People tend to have a government that reflects the level of consciousness of the majority of people who voted.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Just like a sunbeam can't separate itself from the sun, and a wave can't separate itself from the ocean, we can't separate ourselves from one another. We are all part of a vast sea of love, one indivisible divine mind.
Marianne Williamson
Image
If your eyes were open to all the beauty in the world, you would be overwhelmed with joy.
Marianne Williamson
Image
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
Image
The way of the miracle-worker is to see all human behavior as one two things: either love, or a call for love.
Marianne Williamson
Image
A level of anxiety and tension and outright fear that so many people have felt, not only during the recession but during this slow economic recovery since. This made me very much want to up the conversation about how miracle-minded thinking applies to that area of life.

Some things need to be let go before other things can be let in.
