More quotes by Marianne Williamson
You need not apologize for being brilliant, talented, gorgeous, rich, or smart.
Marianne Williamson
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.

Marianne Williamson
We're often afraid of looking at our shadow because we want to avoid the shame or embarrassment that comes along with admitting mistakes.
Marianne Williamson
I think daily life is where the lessons come in - that's where the tests and the growth come in.
Marianne Williamson
The goal of spiritual practice is full recovery, and the only thing you need to recover from is a fractured sense of self.
Marianne Williamson
While overeating would be seen by some as an indulgence of self, it is in fact a profound rejection of self. It is a moment of self-betrayal and self-punishment, and anything but a commitment to one's own well-being.
Marianne Williamson
I am a glorious child of God. I am joyful, serene, positive, and loving.
Marianne Williamson
The only thing missing in any situation is that in which you are not giving
Marianne Williamson
We can't look to the world to restore our worth we're here to restore our worth to the world. The world outside us can reflect our glory, but it cannot create it. It cannot crown us. Only God can crown us, and he already has.
Marianne Williamson
Always be open to new beginnings. To the universe, every moment is the start of the next big thing in your life.
Marianne Williamson
There is a perverse comfort zone to living a small life. For women, that zone has to do with the fact that we're less likely to be challenged, we're less likely to be criticized, we're less likely to be called angry or strident, if we simply go along and acquiesce to the prevailing patterns of thought and behavior.
Marianne Williamson
On any given day, in any given moment, something could happen that opens up for you an entirely new path. Be still, be alert, be ready.
Marianne Williamson
A relationship is more of an assignment than a choice. We can walk away from the assignment, but we cannot walk away from the lessons it presents. We stay with a relationship until a lesson is learned, or we simply learn it another way.
Marianne Williamson
