I believe we are shown the path that is right as soon as we ask for it. Then we must live in the world and in some way express what we have learned.

More quotes by Marianne Williamson
Romance is one of the sacred temples that dot the landscape of life.
Marianne Williamson
Our hearts are being stretched to span the violence and the suffering in our lives and world, and at the same time we are also witness to so much magnificence and brilliance. We are a species that has produced nuclear weapons, and also one that has developed profound insight into the nature of life itself.
Marianne Williamson
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.
Marianne Williamson
I've always wanted to have a radio show. It has been a dream of mine for a long time. With a radio show I can sit in a studio, or ultimately even sit in my own living room, and talk to hundreds of thousands of people.
Marianne Williamson
When an idea reaches critical mass there is no stopping the shift its presence will induce.
Marianne Williamson
Inner peace doesn't come from getting what we want, but from remembering who we are.
Marianne Williamson
The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive.
Marianne Williamson
We're all assigned a piece of the garden, a corner of the universe that is ours to transform.
Marianne Williamson
The world we knew as children is still buried within our minds. Our childlike self is the deepest level of our being. It is who we really are, and what is real doesn't go away.
Marianne Williamson
My story has been the story of my generation.
Marianne Williamson
From a mind filled with infinite love comes the power to create infinite possibilities. We have the power to think in ways that reflect and attract all the love in the world. Such thinking is called enlightenment. Enlightenment is not a process we work toward, but a choice available to us in any instant.
Marianne Williamson
The word politics comes from the Greek politeia which had to do with the citizenry, not the government.
Marianne Williamson
There is a point at which we begin to receive a diminishing return on the accumulation of sacred knowledge unless we use it to at least try to improve the world.
Marianne Williamson
There are no different categories of love. There isn't one kind of love between a mother and child, another between lovers, and another between friends. The love that is real is the love that lies at the heart of all relationships. That is the love of God and it doesn't change with form or circumstance.
Marianne Williamson
Problems come about when we try to direct the flow of the universe rather than allow it to reveal its own design. Inherent in that design is a love for all living things.
Marianne Williamson
A lot of us simply disengaged from politics altogether, but then we woke up and went wow, wait a minute. Why does that insane conversation get to dominate? Who made those people the creators of the conversation? And how can we start a new one?
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
You playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightening about shrinking so others won't feel insecure around you. As you let your own light shine, you indirectly give others permission to do the same.
Marianne Williamson
America is a great country, and we've done a lot of good in the world. But we are a collection of people, not saints. We have our own sins to atone for.
Marianne Williamson
To me, liberation doesn't mean that I can think just like a man. Real liberation means that I can think, act, and be like a woman and receive equal respect, honor, and compensation.
Marianne Williamson
