More quotes by Maya Angelou
Any book that helps a child to form a habit of reading, to make reading one of his deep and continuing needs, is good for him.
Maya Angelou
And one of my absolute favorite quotes of all-time, one that I've adopted as one of my greatest life mottos: Life loves to be taken by the lapel and told: I'm with you kid. Let's go.
Maya Angelou
We are missing Michael. But we do know we had him, and we are the world.
Maya Angelou
Surviving is important. Thriving is elegant.
Maya Angelou
Stormy or sunny days, glorious or lonely nights, I maintain an attitude of gratitude.
Maya Angelou

And if we have the effrontery to talk to anybody with less than courtesy, we tell ourselves and the world we are not very intelligent.
Maya Angelou
Precious jewel, you glow, you shine, reflecting all the good things in the world. Just look at yourself.
Maya Angelou

So he spent time trying to be all things to all people - one way guaranteed not to be successful or respected in a lion's den. You can't just play around with all those big cats - you've got to take somebody on.
Maya Angelou
It's wonderful that whenever Patsy Cline's name is mentioned, people's voices fall and they become right sentimental. And, rightly so.
Maya Angelou
I believe everything is energy. I believe that the meal you serve yourself, you prepare, is energy. And if you serve it to your family, it's your gift of energy to them.
Maya Angelou
Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean.
Maya Angelou
At our best, we are all teachers
Maya Angelou
Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.
Maya Angelou
To grow up is to stop putting blame on parents.
Maya Angelou
She comprehended the perversity of life, that in the struggle lies the joy.
Maya Angelou
Children's talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives.
Maya Angelou
On this platform of peace, we can create a language to translate ourselves to ourselves and to each other.
