Alice Walker Zitate

Deliver me from writers who say the way they live doesn't matter. I'm not sure a bad person can write a good book, If art doesn't make us better, then what on earth is it for.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Befreie mich von Schriftstellern, die sagen, dass ihre Lebensweise keine Rolle spielt. Ich bin nicht sicher, ob ein schlechter Mensch ein gutes Buch schreiben kann. Wenn uns die Kunst nicht besser macht, wozu ist es dann bestimmt?

My wonderful editor, Jackie Onassis, asked me to write a book that I wanted to write. I said, 'Look, it's not going to be scandalized. I'm not going to talk about anybody like a dog. I'm going to say the positiveness of my life, and talk about those who have contributed to the way I've been going, and that's that.'
