Writing saved me from the sin and inconvenience of violence.
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
Love is big love can hold anger, love can even hold hatred. It's about the intention of what you want it to do.
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
My writing is very organic. It's what I am. My mother says I was writing before I was crawling. I wrote in the dirt with a twig. So I think of it as something that's very essential to my being.
Alice Walker
Wherever I have knocked, a door has opened. Wherever I have wandered, a path has appeared.
Alice Walker
HELPED are those who love all the colors of all the human beings, as they love all the colors of the animals and plants none of their children, nor any of their ancestors, nor any parts of themselves, shall be hidden from them.
Alice Walker
My mother had handed down respect for the possibilities...and the will to grasp them.
Alice Walker
The harm that you do to others is the harm that you do to yourself and you cannot think then that you can cause wars in other parts of the world and destroy people and drone them without this having a terrible impact on your own soul and your own consciousness.
Alice Walker
Our mothers and grandmothers ... moving to music not yet written.
Alice Walker
Wish for nothing larger Than your own small heart.
Alice Walker
I started writing as a child. But I didn't think of myself, actually writing until I was in college. And I had gone to Africa as a sophomore or something, no maybe junior and wrote a book of poems. And that was my beginning. I published that book.
Alice Walker
It's almost unbelievable where we are as a planet because people have been so afraid of rocking the boat, of putting forth what they really believe, and standing with people who need to be stood with.
Alice Walker
Listen, God loves everything you love, and a mess of stuff you don't.
Alice Walker
no person is your friend (or kin) who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow and be perceived as fully blossomed as you were intended. Or who belittles in any fashion the gifts you labor so to bring into the world.
Alice Walker
If I could live as a tree, as a river, as the moon, as the sun, as a star, as the earth, as a rock, I would. ...Writing permits me to experience life as any number of strange creations.
Alice Walker
We're going to have to debunk the myth that Africa is a heaven for black people -- especially black women. We've been the mule of the world there and the mule of the world here.
Alice Walker
Honestly, that is the most important thing to me: Can I continue to live up to my own expectations of myself - and not fall back into slacking?
Alice Walker
I feel a little peculiar around the children. For one thing, they grown. 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
Animals were not made for us, or our use. They have their own use, which is just being who they are.
