More quotes by Alice Walker
If you want to have a life that is worth living, a life that expresses your deepest feelings and emotions, and cares and dreams, you have to fight for it.
Alice Walker

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
Any God I ever found in church, I brought in myself.
Alice Walker
I'm for women choosing whatever they want to do but they have to really know what they are doing.
Alice Walker
I try to teach my heart not to want things it cant have.
Alice Walker
I feel very happy to be living in Berkeley because there are a lot of people who are politically active here.
Alice Walker

Alice Walker
As long as the Earth can make a spring every year, I can.
