Marianne WilliamsonThe more room you give yourself to express your true thoughts and feelings, the more room there is for your wisdom to emerge.
Marianne WilliamsonI feel that people who haven't read my books and haven't heard me lecture - who don't in fact know what my work is about - have been very hard on me.

Marianne WilliamsonIf you allow spirit to have dominion in your heart you will have dominion in your life. That changes thinking. That IS the miracle. That I'm not just a child of the body, I'm a child of the universe and in the universe I am programmed for greatness, and the fact that I don't have money in my bank account now doesn't mean I'm any less programmed for greatness. I was programmed for greatness just like the acorn is programmed to be an oak tree.
