More quotes by Alice Walker

Alice Walker
War contributes greatly to global warming, which shouldn't surprise us. All those bombs going off, all those rockets, all those planes and helicopters. All that fuel of various kinds being used. It pollutes the air and water of this very fragile and interconnected planet.
Alice Walker
Sometimes, reading a blog, which I do infrequently, I see that generations of Americans have been wilfully crippled, and can no longer spell or write a sentence.
Alice Walker
Women have to summon courage to fulfill dormant dreams.
Alice Walker
To grow, to become spiritually alive, and vibrant, you really have to struggle. Without struggle, you do not move at all...I would appreciate it if readers who come to my work would try very, very, very hard not to think narrowly as we are taught to think in America.
Alice Walker
Human beings may well be unable to break free of the dictatorship of greed that spreads like a miasma over the world, but no longer will we be an inarticulate and ignorant humanity, confused by our enslavement to superior cruelty and weaponry.
Alice Walker
When life descends into the pit I must become my own candle Willingly burning my self To light up the darkness around me.
Alice Walker
No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.
Alice Walker
If I'm killed - if I'm removed - there is nowhere else for me to go but to my ancestors.
Alice Walker
