Marianne Williamson Experience Quotations

Our internal state determines our experience of our lives; our experiences do not determine our internal state.

Imagine everything you're experiencing now being a hundred times more wonderful. Bad turns good; good turns great. THAT IS WHAT IS POSSIBLE.

Painful experiences are not meant to linger. They are meant to teach us what they need to teach us, and then dissolve.

I don't think of myself as a very famous person, but the modicum of celebrity that I've had has not been a positive experience for me at all.

We experience God to the extent to which we love, forgive, and focus on the good in others and ourselves.

With thoughts of the past and concerns about the future, we rob ourselves of a full experience of the present.

I believe that hunger for a 'lost dimension' of experience is a natural yearning in all of us, and it doesn't go away just because we ignore it. It is evidenced among other places in the millions of children and adults who obsessively read the 'Harry Potter' books. It is said that fiction is where someone gets to tell the truth.

I know politics is emotionally brutal; I've already had experience with the reality of smear campaigns, so I understand there will not be a path of roses laid before me.
