More quotes by 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
The forest is the first cathedral. I felt that from the time I was a child. I credit my mother with that. I used to think it came from her Native-American side. Whichever it was, she instinctively connected with nature, and taught me that.
Alice Walker
HELPED are those who live in quietness, knowing neither brand name nor fad they shall live every day as if in eternity, and each moment shall be as full as it is long.

Alice Walker

Alice Walker
If she come, I be happy. If she don't, I be content.
Alice Walker
Well, I think indigenous peoples have ways of living on the Earth that they've had forever. And they've been overrun by organized religion, which has had a lot of money and power.
Alice Walker
I feel that the ancestors are that covering that will cover me. I feel like I can only be enveloped in them spiritually and physically.
Alice Walker
Helped are those who create anything at all, for they shall relive the thrill of their own conception and realize a partnership in the creation of the Universe that keeps them responsible and cheerful.
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
The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any.
Alice Walker
All my life I had to fight. I had to fight my daddy. I had to fight my uncles. I had to fight my brothers. Girl, child ain't safe in a family of men, but I ain't never thought I had to fight in my own house. I loves Harpo. God knows I do. But I'll kill him dead before I let him beat me.
Alice Walker
I don't know nothing, I think. And glad of it.
Alice Walker
I think the foundation of everything in my life is wonder.
