More quotes by Alice Walker

Alice Walker
I don’t need a certain number of friends, just a number of friends I can be certain of.

I come from somewhere and from specific black people in the South, including my parents, who built our first school, and rebuilt it after it was burned to the ground.

Alice Walker
One thing that never ceases to amaze me, along with the growth of vegetation from the earth and of hair from the head, is the growth of understanding.
Alice Walker
The artist...is the voice of the people.
Alice Walker
Honestly, that is the most important thing to me: Can I continue to live up to my own expectations of myself - and not fall back into slacking?
Alice Walker
What a burden to think one is conceived in sin rather than in pleasure that one is born into evil rather than into joy.
Alice Walker
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
In our particular society, it is the narrowed and narrowing view of life that often wins.
Alice Walker
The gift of loneliness is sometimes a radical vision of society or one's people that has not previously been taken into account.
Alice Walker
At one point I learned transcendental meditation. This was 30-something years ago. It took me back to the way that I naturally was as a child growing up way in the country, rarely seeing people. I was in that state of oneness with creation and it was as if I didn't exist except as a part of everything.
Alice Walker
It is justice and respect that I want the world to dust off and put - without delay, and with tenderness - back on the head of the Palestinian child. It will be imperfect justice and respect because the injustice and disrespect have been so severe. But I believe we are right to try.
Alice Walker
