More quotes by Alice Walker
If art doesn't make us better, then what on earth is it for.
Alice Walker
This could be our revolution: to love what is plentiful as much as what's scarce.
Alice Walker
That is scary, when you consider what we're doing to children all over the planet. They're the ones who are truly being terrorized by all the madness adults are perpetrating.
Alice Walker
I have fought and kicked and fasted and prayed and cursed and cried myself to the point of existing.
Alice Walker
Us sing and dance, make faces and give flower bouquets, trying to be loved. You ever notice that trees do everything to git attention we do, except walk?
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
The only way to solace anyone who loved you in life is to be a good memory
Alice Walker
Be compassionate to everyone. Don't just search for whatever it is that annoys and frightens you-see beyond those things to the basic human being. Especially see the child in the man or woman. Even if they are destroying you, allow a moment to see how lost in their own delusion and suffering they are.
Alice Walker
Don't wait around for other people to be happy for you. Any happiness you get you've got to make yourself.
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
Eventually I knew what hair wanted it wanted to be itself ... to be left alone by anyone, including me, who did not love it as it was.
Alice Walker
I'm where I need to be, so my heart is light. Whatever happens, I know - I mean, I feel - that this is absolutely where I should be and I've lived up to my own expectations.
Alice Walker
we are the ones we have been waiting for
Alice Walker
Humans - whatever billions we are - we don't have the control. We are considered expendable, basically.
Alice Walker
All History is current all injustice continues on some level, somewhere in the world.
Alice Walker
Every time I conjure up a rock, I throw it.
Alice Walker
I don't focus on criticism. I prefer to praise people and the world, rather than criticize them and it.
Alice Walker
Animals can communicate quite well. And they do. And generally speaking, they are ignored
Alice Walker
Every small positive change we make in ourselves repays us in confidence in the future.
Alice Walker
It matters to me that I feel loved by the universe - and I do.
Alice Walker
