Alice Walker
allowing freedom to others brings freedom to ourselves.
Alice Walker
Listen, God loves everything you love, and a mess of stuff you don't.
Alice Walker
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. And they used to bake pies and cakes to raise money to keep it going. So, I learned to struggle from a very early way in a way that was truly indigenous to the South.
Alice Walker
She was so quiet. So reflective. And she could erase herself, her spirit, with a swiftness that truly startled, when she knew the people around her could not respect it.
Alice Walker
I see children, all children, as humanity's most precious resource, because it will be to them that the care of the planet will always be left.
Alice Walker
