More quotes by Alice Walker
before I embark on any new venture, I ask myself: will the joy of doing this make me lose track of any concern for time? If the answer is yes, I proceed!
Alice Walker
Everything is already perfect. And if you can accept that everything is already perfect, the imperfection is a part of the perfection. What's to worry about?
Alice Walker
My work is about my life, and what I want to do with it.
Alice Walker
Every time I conjure up a rock, I throw it.
Alice Walker
What I've seen from keeping in touch as well as I can is that what I find so typical in Mexican culture is the helpfulness of the people to each other. I think, at this point, that is the highest good and the highest we can hope for - which is to be of help and use to each other wherever we are.
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
... my mother adorned with flowers whatever shabby house we were forced to live in.
Alice Walker
Just be what it is that you are, and that is just fine. You don't have to be what you're not in any way. Live that and live that fully, and that is where you discover ecstasy. You can't really have ecstasy as something other than yourself
Alice Walker
Even now, I find that no matter what has happened, I still have that trust. I have a lot of trust, that people can be better than they are.
Alice Walker
The infinite faith I have in people's ability to understand anything that makes sense has always been justified, finally, by their behavior.
Alice Walker
The only way to solace anyone who loved you in life is to be a good memory
Alice Walker
We are all substantially flawed, wounded, angry, hurt, here on Earth. But this human condition, so painful to us, and in someways shameful- because we feel we are weak when the reality of ourselves is exposed- is made much more bearable when it is shared, face to face, in words that have expressive human eyes behind them.
Alice Walker
To me war is something to be outgrown, recognized as immature, wasteful, and so destructive to life that human beings should shun it ... as they once shunned bubonic plague.
Alice Walker
There are those who believe Black people possess the secret of joy and that it is this that will sustain them through any spiritual or moral or physical devastation.
Alice Walker
I'm mad about the waste that happens when people who love each other can't even bring themselves to talk.
Alice Walker
What I am really interested in is that I want people to be thinking in other ways - to stop thinking they have to remain glued to a system that has failed and to ideas about society that's necessarily about being run by Democrats or Republicans.
Alice Walker
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.
Alice Walker
I don't know if you actually get something out of writing poetry. I think poetry is an autonomous muse that decides to come and sit on your couch.
Alice Walker
This could be our revolution: to love what is plentiful as much as what's scarce.
Alice Walker
Every small positive change we make in ourselves repays us in confidence in the future.
Alice Walker
