Alice Walker
Meditation is like the cloak of the good thief. You find a corner or somewhere where you can actually entertain your own self and your own soul, and understand what your work [is] here.
Alice Walker

Alice Walker
Nobody is as powerful as we make them out to be.
Alice Walker
My God is not a religious God. My God is nature, my God is everything there is. That's God. Everything is God. I'm a child of that.
Alice Walker
I realized I was a country person - I'm just not used to small spaces.
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.
