More quotes by Marianne Williamson
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
Use each interaction to be the best, most powerful version of yourself.
Marianne Williamson
Everything we do is infused with the energy with which we do it.
Marianne Williamson
To be a princess is to play at life. To be a queen is to be a serious player...The purpose of life as a woman is to ascend to the throne and rule with heart.
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
I think daily life is where the lessons come in - that's where the tests and the growth come in.
Marianne Williamson
I believe that the spirit of God enters into the details and if we ask for guidance we will be led to the places where we can learn most fully because we can be most joyful. If I'm in a place that's lonely, I think God has one or two things to say. Extend your hand in service so that you might meet people or go somewhere else - or both.
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
Our past is a story existing only in our minds. Look, analyze, understand, and forgive. Then, as quickly as possible, chuck it.
Marianne Williamson
When we begin to see each other through what the metaphysician calls, the third eye, we begin to know each other on a level that is beyond what our physical eyes can see.
Marianne Williamson
In the Jewish religion it says - in the time of deepest darkest night act as if the morning has already come
Marianne Williamson
The gap is not between knowing it and living it, it's between knowing it and living it consistently. You know, we've all had moments when we got it right. Most of us have moments when we get it right every day. The trouble is getting it right when a curve-ball comes at us.
Marianne Williamson
Your life has purpose as long as you dedicate it to love. It's not what we do but who we are that forms our biggest contribution.
Marianne Williamson
What the ego doesn't want us to see is that our pain doesn't come from the love we weren't given in the past, but from the love we ourselves aren't giving in the present.
Marianne Williamson
Forgiveness is the key to inner peace because it is the mental technique by which our thoughts are transformed from fear to love.
Marianne Williamson
Whatever situation you're in: Send love, place it in God's hands, open your heart to everyone involved - and it will turn out miraculously.
Marianne Williamson
We have to wage peace. That's the law of the spirit is the waging of peace, because if we simply seek to manage the effects of hatred, which does need to be done, of course. But if all we do is manage the effects of hatred, then hatred will simply stalk us the next decade or the next generation. We need to dismantle hatred itself.
Marianne Williamson
Every relationship is a gift exchange.
Marianne Williamson
Obviously, I don't want to minimize the patriarchal nature of our media, our government and our culture as a whole. But I think it's our refusal as women to own our power that is our biggest problem, both individually and collectively. The linchpin that holds the current system in place is the slumber of women.
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.
