More quotes by Alice Walker
I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it.
Alice Walker
Like I said...fine with me.
Alice Walker
Never be the only one, except, possibly, in your own home.
Alice Walker
What you hope for, you also fear.
Alice Walker
My big complaint with myself is that I get tired. But, I forgive myself because it's human to get tired. But, I didn't always feel like I could forgive myself. There's a certain [drive], I think. But, now I feel like, OK, you can be tired. People should let you be tired. Then you should go and take a nap, and you should sleep. That's about it.
Alice Walker
The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans any more than black people were made for white, or women created for men.
Alice Walker
In order to be able to live at all in America I must be unafraid to live anywhere in it, and I must be able to live in the fashion and with whom I choose.
Alice Walker
I have a lot of faith in us. I have a lot of faith in humanity. It's based, though, on my own life I've come too far to be a pessimist.
Alice Walker
No song or poem will bear my mother's name. Yet so many of the stories that I write, that we all write, are my mother's stories.
Alice Walker
I believe God is everything, say Shug. Everything that is or ever was or ever will be. And when you can feel that, and be happy to feel that, you've found It.
Alice Walker
My life is not to be somebody else's impact - you know what I mean?
Alice Walker
I see children, all children, as humanity's most precious resource, because it will be to them that the care of the planet will always be left.
Alice Walker
A burnt finger remember the fire.
Alice Walker
In nature, nothing is perfect and everything is perfect. Trees can be contorted, bent in weird ways, and they're still beautiful.
Alice Walker
After all, how can a society flourish, a country attain democracy and health, children grow into intelligent beings, sensitive to the needs of an ever more fragile and endangered planet, if half it's people are kept out of the driver's seat?
Alice Walker
That is scary, when you consider what we're doing to children all over the planet. They're the ones who are truly being terrorized by all the madness adults are perpetrating.
Alice Walker
Yes, Mother. I can see you are flawed. You have not hidden it. That is your greatest gift to me.
Alice Walker
Wherever I have knocked, a door has opened. Wherever I have wandered, a path has appeared.
Alice Walker
Just be what it is that you are, and that is just fine. You don't have to be what you're not in any way. Live that and live that fully, and that is where you discover ecstasy. You can't really have ecstasy as something other than yourself
Alice Walker
Activism is my rent for living on the planet.
Alice Walker
