More quotes by Marianne Williamson
The Goddess doesn't enter us from outside she emerges from deep within. She is not held back by what happened in the past. She is conceived in consciousness, born in love, and nurtured by higher thinking. She is integrity and value, created and sustained by the hard work of personal growth and the discipline of a life lived actively in hope.
Marianne Williamson
I write and speak about personal and spiritual growth. One week I write about illness and another week I speak about relationships and another week I write about work and money and another week I speak to people with obesity issues. I write about whatever wounds seem to cry out for more enlightened solutions, and the love that heals them all.

Marianne Williamson
Our deepest need is to be seen.
Marianne Williamson
Fear is trusting in your own power.
Marianne Williamson
The past doesn't determine your future unless you carry it with you into the present. Forgiving yourself and others, you free the universe to begin again at any moment.
Marianne Williamson
Nothing is so dangerous for our security as large groups of desperate people.
Marianne Williamson
If you're getting your guidance about who you are and what to do with your life only from the external world, then by definition you'll be led away from your authentic truth. Your authentic truth isn't in the material world. It's counterintuitive, but you have more power in the world when you know you're not of it.
Marianne Williamson
The deepest feelings always show itself in silence.
Marianne Williamson
I think the greatest gift we can give our children is to show them that devotion to God's purposes - love for all beings - is the center of all right living.
Marianne Williamson
Our problem is not that we don't have power, so much as that we tend to not use the power we have.
