Critics don't really affect the fact that we live in this paradise and what the meaning of that [is]. And what luck to have this!
Alice Walker
What gardening teaches us is that if you plant things, they'll come up. But you have to be willing to wait for them to bear fruit because things are seasonal.
Alice Walker
You can love yourself spiritually, physically-in almost any way that anybody else can.
Alice Walker
I am not lesbian, I am not bisexual, I am not straight. I am just curious

I want something else a different system entirely. One not seen on this earth for thousands of years. If ever. Democratic Womanism. Notice how this word has man right in the middle of it? That's one reason I like it. He is right there, front and center. But he is surrounded. I want to vote and work for a way of life that honors the feminine.
Alice Walker
It didn't take long to realize I didn't hardly know nothing. And that if you ast yourself why you black or a man or a woman or a bush it don't mean nothing if you don't ast why you here, period
Alice Walker
HELPED are those who are shown the existence of the Creator's magic in the Universe they shall experience delight and astonishment without ceasing.
Alice Walker
I don't focus on criticism. I prefer to praise people and the world, rather than criticize them and it.
Alice Walker
Everything wanna be loved. Us sing and dance, and holla just wanting to be loved.
Alice Walker
Our mothers and grandmothers ... moving to music not yet written.
Alice Walker
One white man on the platform in South Carolina asked us where we were going--we had got off the train to get some fresh air and to dust the grit and dust out of our clothes. When we said Africa he looked offended and tickled too. Niggers going to Africa, he said to his wife. Now I have seen everything.
