human animals and nonhuman animals can communicate quite well if we are brought up around animals as children we take this for granted. By the time we are adults we no longer remember.

More quotes by Alice Walker
I just really love people a lot. I really love them.
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
I really think admiration for nature can save us. I mean true admiration, to the point of not letting it be harmed.
Alice Walker
People who work hard often work too hard. ... May we learn to honor the hammock, the siesta, the nap and the pause in all its forms.
Alice Walker
Abortion is an act of self-defense.
Alice Walker
Wherever I have knocked, a door has opened. Wherever I have wandered, a path has appeared.
Alice Walker
War is a dead end, literally. And, what is more, we simply can't afford it. Not morally, and not financially. How long will it take the citizens of the United States, one wonders, to recognize that the house their country bombed in Iraq is the same one they were living in until it was foreclosed?
Alice Walker
I continue to care for President Obama and for his family. I think that in many ways they are very courageous people, and I honor that, because I know what it means to live as a black person in a racist America.
Alice Walker
It just seems clear to me that as long as we are all here, it's pretty clear that the struggle is to share the planet, rather than divide it.
Alice Walker
Freedom, after all, is like love: the more you give to others, the more you have.
Alice Walker
What the mind doesn't understand, it worships or fears.
Alice Walker
allowing freedom to others brings freedom to ourselves.
Alice Walker
Men make war to get attention. All killing is an expression of self-hate.
Alice Walker
Writing saved me from the sin and inconvenience of violence - as it saves most writers who live in 'interesting' oppressive times and are not afflicted by personal immunity.
Alice Walker
Clearly older women and especially older women who have led an active life or elder women who successfully maneuver through their own family life have so much to teach us about sharing, patience, and wisdom.
Alice Walker
My activism really is for myself, because I see places in the world where I feel I should be. If there is something really bad, really evil, happening somewhere, then that is where I should be. I need, for myself, to feel that I have stood there. It feels a lot better than just watching it on television.
Alice Walker
It is natural to want to have a future.
Alice Walker
People will say to you, Oh, you are fearless. That is so not true. We should stop saying that about people. It's a slander, really.
Alice Walker
Language is an intrinsic part of who we are and what has, for good or evil, happened to us.
Alice Walker
As an elder of the Americas and of the rest of the planet, it is my responsibility to care for and protect, to the best of my ability, the young.
Alice Walker
