I've never seen service as separate from my spiritual practice or my spiritual teaching.
Marianne Williamson -
Rather than accepting that we are the loving beings that He created, we have arrogantly thought that we could create ourselves, and then create God. Because we are angry and judgmental, we have projected those characteristics onto Him. We have made up a God in our image. But God remains who He is and always has been: the energy, the thought of unconditional love.

The human race is almost addicted to war. It's like we just can't stop.
Marianne Williamson -
I think you have to grieve the loss of youth before you can claim the joy on the other side of it.
Marianne Williamson -
I feel that the social revolution of the sixties is like a revolving door that came our way, and then left. It's back again.
Marianne Williamson -
When we are centered in joy, we attain our wisdom.
Marianne Williamson -
The world loves us when we choose to love the world.
Marianne Williamson -
No matter what is happening in the world of appearances, beyond the veil of illusion there is love and only Love.

-
Love is about letting go of the fears that stand in front of our hearts.
Marianne Williamson -
When infants aren't held, they can become sick, even die. It's universally accepted that children need love, but at what age are people supposed to stop needing it? We never do. We need love in order to live happily, as much as we need oxygen in order to live at all.
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 -
Envision possibility. Don't worry who else believes in it; the universe is only looking for instructions from you.
Marianne Williamson -
Political system is contrary to everything a feminine heart stands for. It lacks tenderness. It lacks poetry. It doesn't nurture. It doesn't love. And without those things, a woman's soul is bereft.
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.

Children are not children. They are just younger people.
Marianne Williamson -
Every time we focus on someone else's darkness, we are blocking our own view of the light. We think the person we are involved with has attacked us or has withheld love from us, when they really haven't. We focus on their guilt instead of their innocence. Frequently people are just being themselves and we start projecting our own childhood dramas onto them, pushing away the very love we want so much.
Marianne Williamson -
Capitalism has been really good to me. I'm very fortunate: I have written books and my books have sold.
Marianne Williamson -
Once you've had enough and you can't do it anymore, you consider the possibility that there might be a better way. That's when your head cracks open and God comes in.
Marianne Williamson -
Charisma is a sparkle in people that money can't buy. It's an invisible energy with visible effects.
Marianne Williamson -
Growth is a detox process, as our weakest, darkest places are sucked up to the surface in order to be released...often, it is not a change in partners but rather a change in perception that delivers us to the love we seek.
Marianne Williamson
-
Stop waiting for a producer. Produce yourself.
Marianne Williamson -
There is one God. The Jews and the Christians have no monopoly on God. I'm speaking about the same God the Hindus talk about, the same God the Muslims talk about, the same God that the Taoists and the Confucians talk about.
Marianne Williamson -
The key to abundance is meeting limited circumstances with unlimited thoughts.
Marianne Williamson -
Imagine a temple inside your mind, a haven from the chaos of the world. Visit often.
