More quotes by Alice Walker
I feel a little peculiar around the children. For one thing, they grown. And I see they think me and Nettie and Shug and Albert and Samuel and Harpo and Sofia and Jack and Odessa real old and don't know much what going on. But I don't think us feel old at all. And us so happy. Matter of fact, I think this the youngest us ever felt.

Alice Walker
You really can't be a good artist if you can't say what you really feel. And people may be offended, but, you know, that's how you feel, and that is your right, and that is your gift as well.
Alice Walker
Everything wanna be loved. Us sing and dance, and holla just wanting to be loved.
Alice Walker
For in the end, freedom is a personal and lonely battle and one faces down fears of today so that those of tomorrow might be engaged.
Alice Walker
Healing begins where the wound was made.
Alice Walker
I am not interested in being a role model, or in fulfilling the expectations of others. I know I am of most use to others and to myself by being this unique self: Nature, I have noticed, is not particularly devoted to copies, and human beings needn't be either.
Alice Walker
HELPED are those whose every act is a prayer for peace on them depends the future of the world.
Alice Walker
You must run around like a crazy person or walk sedately honoring the dead.
Alice Walker
The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any.
