Dear God...I have always been a good girl. Maybe you can give me a sign letting me know what is happening to me.
Alice Walker
I'm the kind of woman that likes to enjoy herselves in peace.
Alice Walker
Fiction is such a world of freedom, it's wonderful. If you want someone to fly, they can fly.
Alice Walker
It has been proved that the land can exist without the country - and be better for it it has not been proved ... that the country can exist without the land.
Alice Walker
Freedom, after all, is like love: the more you give to others, the more you have.
Alice Walker
To me war is something to be outgrown, recognized as immature, wasteful, and so destructive to life that human beings should shun it ... as they once shunned bubonic plague.
Alice Walker

I think that indigenous women's wisdom is crucial. So much of the care of the Earth has come from the mothers. I think it's imperative we turn to their wisdom in how to take care of the planet.
Alice Walker
It must become a right of every person to die of old age. And if we secure this right for ourselves, we can, coincidentally, assure it for the planet.
Alice Walker
I find it difficult to feel responsible for the suffering of others. That's why I find war so hard to bear. It's the same with animals: I feel the less harm I do, the lighter my heart. I love a light heart. And when I know I'm causing suffering, I feel the heaviness of it. It's a physical pain. So it's self-interest that I don't want to cause harm.
Alice Walker
Healing cannot be done by settling a score.
Alice Walker
Drew Dellinger is a deep and courageous poet. How lucky we are!
Alice Walker
I can easily imagine Obama sitting down and talking to any leader - or any person - in the world, with no baggage of past servitude or race supremacy to mar their talks.
Alice Walker
In our particular society, it is the narrowed and narrowing view of life that often wins.
Alice Walker
If I'm killed - if I'm removed - there is nowhere else for me to go but to my ancestors.
Alice Walker
America is America. It's a capitalist system. They [leaders] have enshrined that belief that profit matters more than anything else. The polarization of the society is just the resurfacing of that.
Alice Walker
human animals and nonhuman animals can communicate quite well if we are brought up around animals as children we take this for granted. By the time we are adults we no longer remember.
Alice Walker
But if by some miracle and all our struggle, the earth is spared, only justice to every living being will save humankind.
Alice Walker
I feel like to be where you need to be - where you know you need to be - is such a high. What could be better?
Alice Walker
Decide that you know what you think is good for you and go ahead and do it.
Alice Walker
