Alice Walker nejznámější citáty

„Zvířata jsou na světě ze svých vlastních důvodů. Nebyla stvořena pro lidi, stejně jako černí nebyli stvořeni pro bílé a ženy pro muže.“

Alice Walker

„Bůh je v tobě a vůbec ve všech lidech. S Bohem v sobě už na svět přicházíme. Ale najde ho jen ten kdo ho hledá v sobě. Někdy se Bůh projeví i dyž ho nehledáš nebo dyž nevíš co vlastně hledáš. Samej žal, Pane muj. Většinou si všicky kvůli tomu připadaj jak vonuce.“

Alice Walker kniha The Color Purple

„Milovaný chce bejt úplně všecko. Zpíváme, tancujem, pitvoříme se, dáváme si kytky a to všecko v naději že nás někdo bude mít rád. Všimla sis někdy že stromy dělaj přesně to samý co my aby na sebe upozornily? Teda až na to že nechoděj.“

Alice Walker kniha The Color Purple

„Žádný člověk není vaším přítelem, pokud vás žádá o mlčení nebo vám upírá právo na růst.“

Alice Walker

“He has told me he likes men as well as he likes women, which seems only natural, he says, since he is the offspring of two sexes as well as two races. No one is surprised he is biracial; why should they be surprised he is bisexual? This is an explanation I have never heard and cannot entirely grasp; it seems too logical for my brain.”

“I felt in Georgia and on the east coast generally very squeezed. People have so many hang-ups about how other people live their lives. People always want to keep you in a little box or they need to label you and fix you in time and location. I feel a greater fluidity here. People are much more willing to accept that nothing is permanent, everything is changeable so there is freedom and I do need to live where I can be free.”

“I want a grown-up attitude to Cuba, for instance, a country and people I love. I want an end to the war immediately, and I want the soldiers to be encouraged to destroy their weapons and drive themselves out of Iraq. I want the Israeli government to be made accountable for its behaviour to the Palestinians, and I want the people of the US to cease acting as if they don't understand what is going on. But most of all I want someone with the confidence to talk to anyone, "enemy" or "friend", and this Obama has shown he can do.”
