More quotes by Maya Angelou
As soon as healing takes place, go out and heal somebody else.
Maya Angelou
I love wisdom. And you can never be great at anything unless you love it. Not be in love with it, but love the thing, admire the thing. And it seems that if you love the thing, and you don't just want to possess it, it will find you.
Maya Angelou
I would ask every man and every woman who's had the blessing of having children, 'Would you deny your son or your daughter the ecstasy of finding someone to love?' To love someone takes a lot of courage. So how much more is one challenged when the love is of the same sex and the laws say, 'I forbid you from loving this person'?
Maya Angelou
Moderation in all things. And even moderation in moderation. Don't get too much moderation, you know?
Maya Angelou
I always felt, if I can get to a library, I'll be OK.
Maya Angelou
You think you may not be heard. Speak anyway.
Maya Angelou
I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.
Maya Angelou
You can't really know where you are going until you know where you have been.
Maya Angelou
We agreed that great men and women should be forced to live as long as possible. The reverence they enjoyed was a life sentence, which they could neither revoke nor modify.
Maya Angelou
Life is a glorious banquet, a limitless and delicious buffet.
Maya Angelou
I know that I've been guided by God. I am obedient.
Maya Angelou
Do not be wedded forever to fear, yoked eternally to brutishness.
Maya Angelou
The most called-upon prerequisite of a friend is an accessible ear.
Maya Angelou
By no amount of agile exercising of a wistful imagination could my mother have been called lenient. Generous she was indulgent never. Kind, yes, permissive, never. In her world, people she accepted paddled their own canoes, pulled their own weight, put their own shoulders to their own plows and pushed like hell.
Maya Angelou
You are the sum total of everything you've seen, heard, eaten, smelled, been told, forgot- it's all right there.
Maya Angelou
You can't get too high for somebody to bring you down.
Maya Angelou
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
Maya Angelou
I sustain myself with the love of family.
Maya Angelou
Don't face the day until you've faced God.
Maya Angelou
You can see in others what they don't see in themselves and what the world doesn't see in them.
Maya Angelou
