William Walker may refer to:...
children men tree
He beat me like he beat the children. Cept he don't never hardly beat them. He say, Celie, git the belt. The children be outside the room peeking through the cracks. It all I can do not to cry. I make myself wood. I say to myself, Celie, you a tree. That's how come I know trees fear man.
thinking blow wind
The earth is for joy, and dancing is a big part of that. And you dance with nature. Nature is always dancing. If you're not harassing it and killing it and mutilating it, nature is dancing. That's what the leaves are doing when the wind blows through them. We live in a magical wonderful universe. And just spoil it while thinking we can at some point go to heaven or some other planet.
cried cursed
I have fought and kicked and fasted and prayed and cursed and cried myself to the point of existing.
meaningful nature compassion
The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans any more than black people were made for white, or women created for men.
mother flower house
... my mother adorned with flowers whatever shabby house we were forced to live in.
israel people territory
Israel is guilty of apartheid and persecution of the Palestinian people, both inside Israel and also in the Occupied Territories.
thinking forever earth
Well, I think indigenous peoples have ways of living on the Earth that they've had forever. And they've been overrun by organized religion, which has had a lot of money and power.
real soul misery
I know, in my soul, that to eat a creature who is raised to be eaten, and who never has a chance to be a real being, is unhealthy. It's like...you're just eating misery. You're eating a bitter life.
people very-happy feels
I feel very happy to be living in Berkeley because there are a lot of people who are politically active here.
faith teacher buddhist
I'm not [a Buddhist]. The whole point of anything that is really, truly valuable to your soul, and your own growth, is not to attach to a teacher, but rather to find out what the real deal is in the world itself. You become your own guide. The teachings can help you, but really, we're all here with the opportunity the reality of hereness. We all have that. I trust that...I'm just not interested in labels. I find all of them constrictive. They're hard to wear. And they're hard to wear because we're always - hopefully - growing.
dream faithful honest
Poetry, I have discovered, is always unexpected and always as faithful and honest as dreams.
love stolen
You must learn to love only that which cannot be stolen.
children believe dust
It is justice and respect that I want the world to dust off and put - without delay, and with tenderness - back on the head of the Palestinian child. It will be imperfect justice and respect because the injustice and disrespect have been so severe. But I believe we are right to try.
church found
Any God I ever found in church, I brought in myself.
