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
There is no they, only us. We are part of a large fellowship called the human race. We all hurt the same. We all love the same. We all bleed the same. We all need understanding and care. We can't separate ourselves from one another. We are all part of the same vast sea of love, one indivisible divine mind.

Marianne Williamson
The world as it is perceived by most people, is a world of finite resources.
Marianne Williamson
The point of Jesus' existence wasn't to lessen or diminish our appreciation of each other, but to expand our appreciation of each other by reminding us what lies within all of us, because Jesus was an example of the pinnacle of human evolution.
Marianne Williamson
There are people today who look to fear to take us out of fear. But I believe that there are many, many more people who would look to love.
Marianne Williamson
Newtonian physics is over. You don't act on the world to change the world. You realize the world is a projection of your inner self. If you change, the world changes.
Marianne Williamson
To me, that's the important issue about spiritual principle: that you recognize it as both that which saves you from the self-sabotaging mind and that which heals you and lifts you up when you succumb to it and attract whatever personal disaster you attract.
Marianne Williamson
Actually, who are you not to be?
Marianne Williamson
I've never seen service as separate from my spiritual practice or my spiritual teaching.
Marianne Williamson
Personal growth can be painful, because it can make us feel ashamed and humiliated to face our own darkness. But our spiritual goal is the journey out of fear-based, painful mental habit patterns, to those of love and peace.
Marianne Williamson
We experience who we really are, and what it is we are meant to do, in any moment when we pour our love into the universe.
Marianne Williamson
It's soul force that removed the English from India. It's soul force that brought down the Berlin Wall. It's soul force that gave life to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s struggle for civil rights.
Marianne Williamson
Every time we open our hearts, we create the space for a global alternative.
Marianne Williamson
We find our happiness to the extent to which we use our minds to bless the world, for that is the natural use of the mind. It is the reason we were born.
