Famous Marianne Williamson Quotes

“There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

“We must relinquish our passive observation of the world outside; we can open the door to the world we want. In understanding ourselves, we come to understand the world.

“Just like a sunbeam can't separate itself from the sun, and a wave can't separate itself from the ocean, we can't separate ourselves from one another. We are all part of a vast sea of love, one indivisible divine mind.”

“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.

But God remains who He is and always has been: the energy, the thought of unconditional love.”

“We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?”

“Your playing small does not serve the world. Who are you not to be great?”

“We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world.”
