Marianne Williamson Quotes About Heart

• What's difficult in life is to stay centered when somebody does or says something that tempts us to close our hearts because their heart was closed. That is hard. But that is also how we grow. We go through those circumstances in order to evolve into people who can hold to our loving center no matter what the world throws us.

• In every moment we make a decision -- whether conscious or unconscious. Will I choose to open my heart, send love, withhold judgment and thus free myself from fear?

• 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...

  as long as we feel we have to make
  a choice between being heard
  and being loved.

• Forgiveness does not mean that we suppress anger; forgiveness means that we have asked for a miracle: the ability to see through mistakes that someone has made to the truth that lies in all of our hearts. Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it feels more painful than the wound we suffered, to forgive the one that inflicted it. And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness. Attack thoughts towards others are attack thoughts towards ourselves. The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive.

'We will light up like lamps, and the world will never be the same again.'
