The problem with most intimate relationships is that they are not romantic. They do not involve a deeper knowing, and thus there is diminished possibility of sacred, transformative sharing.

More quotes by Marianne Williamson
To the extent to which we believe in this world, we are heir to the laws which rule this place.
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
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
Marianne Williamson
The more mature we are, the more receptive we are.
Marianne Williamson
For many people, God is a frightening idea. Asking God for help doesn't seem very comforting if we think of Him as something outside ourselves, or capricious, or judgmental. But God is love and He dwells within us. We are created in His image, or mind, which means that we are extensions of His love, or Sons and Daughters of God.
Marianne Williamson
Darkness is merely the absence of light, and fear is merely the absence of love. If we want to be rid of fear, we cannot fight it but must replace it with love.
Marianne Williamson
When we do align with it, we thrive. And when we do not, we suffer. This is not punishment. It is merely the Law of Cause and Effect. With each thought we think, we either align with universal love, or we disconnect ourselves from it. Whichever is our choice determines whether we then feel connected to, or disconnected, from our own true Selve
Marianne Williamson
I can't say what most people are doing. I can only say what I am doing.
Marianne Williamson
Every time we're about to criticize someone for what we think they did wrong, let's first remember to thank them for the things they did right. And to mean it to sincerely affirm them. Then, if there's still a problem that needs to be shared, it will come from a completely different energy -- and actually be heard!
Marianne Williamson
We're all assigned a piece of the garden, a corner of the universe that is ours to transform.
Marianne Williamson
We need to recognize that part our political problem is that we do not participate effectively, that we suffer from a kind of mental slumber.
Marianne Williamson
We tend to have tremendous faith in the power of our disasters and far too little faith in the power of miracles.
Marianne Williamson
I had an experience that probably is shared by many parents. When my daughter was born, I felt viscerally connected to generations before and after me in a way that took me by surprise.
Marianne Williamson
If we come to see that this world does not have the final word, then we open our mind and therefore our entire lives to experience the possibility of infinite possibilities.
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
No one is any more or any less important than you are.
Marianne Williamson
Something amazing happens when we surrender and just love. We melt into another world, a realm of power already within us. The world changes when we change. the world softens when we soften. The world loves us when we choose to love the world.
Marianne Williamson
Women will not be free until we can speak our minds and our hearts without having to worry that men will crucify us, women will crucify us, the press will crucify us, or our children will be ashamed... Women are still in emotional bondage as long as we feel we have to make a choice between being heard and being loved.
Marianne Williamson
Spiritual growth increases our sense of what's possible. And as we sense new possibility, we can step into that possibility. With every word, every thought, every action, we choose what we wish to call forth in life.
Marianne Williamson
