More quotes by Maya Angelou
Most people don't grow up. It's too damn difficult. What happens is most people get older.
Maya Angelou
Some of us are timid. We think we have something to lose so we don't try for that next hill.
Maya Angelou
Intelligence is a separate gift, for the benefit of students, so that they may think of themselves as intellectual and not very intelligent, or intelligent and not very intellectual. One hopes, of course, that they try to bring the two virtues, the two elements, into their lives at the same time.
Maya Angelou
In order to win, we pay with energy and effort and discipline. If we lose, we pay in disappointment, discontent, and lack of fulfillment.
Maya Angelou
I would be stupid not to be on my own side. But I'm a human being, too. And I'm on the side of human beings, rather than on the side of crocodiles.
Maya Angelou
I learned a long time ago the wisest thing I can do is be on my own side, be an advocate for myself and others like me.
Maya Angelou
I long, as does every human being, to be at home wherever I find myself.
Maya Angelou
Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances.
Maya Angelou
Mostly, what I have learned so far about aging, despite the creakiness of one's bones and cragginess of one's once-silken skin, is this: Do it. By all means, do it.
Maya Angelou
Exchange love for hate...Thereby, making the present comfortable and the future promising.
Maya Angelou
The root cause of all the problems we have in the world today is ignorance of course. But most, polarization.
Maya Angelou
That knowledge humbles me, melts my bones, closes my ears, and makes my teeth rock loosely in their gums. And it also liberates me. I am a big bird winging over high mountains, down into serene valleys. I am ripples of waves on silver seas. I'm a spring leaf trembling in anticipation.
Maya Angelou
Sunday, if I'm lucky, I'll go to church or listen to some good spiritual advice on the television or on the radio. I take three or four baths to try to cleanse myself, so I'm fresh for Monday.
Maya Angelou
Have enough courage to love.
Maya Angelou
There is an intimate laughter to be found only among friends
Maya Angelou
Black women have not historically stood in the pulpit, but that doesn't undermine the fact that they built the churches and maintain the pulpits.
Maya Angelou
I had to trust life and believe that life loved the person who dared to live it.
Maya Angelou
I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.
Maya Angelou
Creativity or talent, like electricity, is something I don't understand but something I'm able to harness and use.
Maya Angelou
Love is that condition in the human spirit so profound that it allows me to survive, and better than that, to thrive with passion, compassion, and style.
Maya Angelou
