Famous quotes containing the word walker:

    Beautiful were your sand-papering words against our skins!

    An evil moon bleeds drops of death.
    The earth burns brown.
    Grass shrivels and dries to a yellowish mass.
    Earth wears a dun-colored dress
    like an old woman wooing the sun to be her lover,
    be her sweetheart and her husband bound in one.
    —Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)

    It is healthier, in any case, to write for the adults one’s children will become than for the children one’s “mature” critics often are.
    —Alice Walker (b. 1944)
