But it ain't easy, trying to do without God even if you know he ain't there, trying to do without him is a strain
Alice Walker
Not only will your teachers appear, but they will cook new foods for you.

HELPED are those whose ever act is a prayer for harmony in the Universe, for they are the restorers of balance to our planet. To them will be given the insight that every good act done anywhere in the cosmos welcomes the life of an animal or a child.
Alice Walker

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
HELPED are those who laugh with a pure heart theirs will be the company of the jolly righteous.
Alice Walker

Alice Walker
Abortion is an act of self-defense.
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
I really think admiration for nature can save us. I mean true admiration, to the point of not letting it be harmed.
Alice Walker
I have learned not to worry about love but to honor its coming with all my heart.
Alice Walker
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
