More quotes by Marianne Williamson
The miracle-minded perception would be to make happiness itself our goal and to relinquish the thought that we know what that would look like.
Marianne Williamson
In his farewell address, George Washington warned the people about political parties. Now we see how both Democrats and Republicans have conspired to reduce democratic participation. If this is the best the Democrats and Republicans have to offer, it's time to look elsewhere.Politics should be the prism for our most noble intentions.
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
Family... a group experience of love and support.
Marianne Williamson
Take stock of your thoughts and behavior. Each night ask yourself, when were you negative when you could have been positive? When did you withhold love when you might have given it? When did you play a neurotic game instead of behaving in a powerful way? Use this process to self-correct.
Marianne Williamson
Conscious awareness is the source of our healing...Only when you say the truth can the truth set you free. This is not a negative process, but at times it is a difficult process.
Marianne Williamson
The desire for transcendence is intimately connected with the desire for creativity. It is just as essential to who and what we are.
Marianne Williamson
What if we truly believed that there is a beneficent order to things, a force that's holding things together without our conscious control? What if we could see, in our daily lives, the working of that force? What if we believed it loved us somehow and cared for us, and protected us? What if we believed we could afford to relax?
Marianne Williamson
Often faith isn't hoping that good times are coming it's trying to see that the good times are here.
Marianne Williamson
Everything we do is infused with the energy with which we do it. If we're frantic, life will be frantic. If we're peaceful, life will be peaceful. And so our goal in any situation becomes inner peace.
Marianne Williamson
The universe is conspiring at this moment to bring you happiness and peace.
Marianne Williamson
Once you get to your forties or fifties in this society, very few people haven't had at least one body blow - financial, bankruptcy, divorce, relationship disaster, addiction, trouble with a child, trouble with a parent. Most people take some blow.
Marianne Williamson
Beyond drama and chaos, beyond anxiety and fear, lies a zone of endless peace and love. Let's all take a very deep breath, slow down for just a moment and remember this. That alone will open the door.
Marianne Williamson
Love knows how to form itself. God will do his work if we do ours. Our job is to prepare ourselves for love. When we do, love finds us every time.
Marianne Williamson
Your future isn't programmed by your past it's programmed by your thoughts.
Marianne Williamson
Individuals seem to have reached their walls and so has the entire human race. Whatever isn't working, isn't life-producing, isn't producing love for ourselves or others, is going to have to go now. Or, literally, there will be hell to pay.
Marianne Williamson
Behind every dark cloud there is an every-shining sun. Just wait. In time, the cloud will pass.
Marianne Williamson
Spiritual progress is like a detoxification.
Marianne Williamson
We need to shift from an economic to a humanitarian organizing principle for human civilization. And women, en masse, should be saying so.
Marianne Williamson
I don't think that my twenties were any more dramatic than those of most people I know. I was never that bad and I never became that good.
Marianne Williamson
