Alice Walker
I grew up in the South under segregation. So, I know what terrorism feels like — when your father could be taken out in the middle of the night and lynched just because he didn't look like he was in an obeying frame of mind when a white person said something he must do. I mean, that's terrorism, too.

Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them...There are lighter colors of granite...I try to decorate my imagination as much as I can...The white man's happiness cannot be purchased...Style is joyful if you allow yourself to have joy...Right is right, even if everyone is against it...
