Alice WalkerSo the best thing is to really work on yourself and opening your own heart and just letting all that stuff [worrying] go. And it is possible. It's sometimes takes a lot of time; it's not easy. And a lot of sitting with yourself and trying to work with your own heart.

Alice WalkerAt one point I learned transcendental meditation. This was 30-something years ago.
