More quotes by Maya Angelou
I'm convinced of this: Good done anywhere is good done everywhere. For a change, start by speaking to people rather than walking by them like they're stones that don't matter. As long as you're breathing, it's never too late to do some good.
Maya Angelou
Don't trust people who don't laugh. I don't.
Maya Angelou
I'm sorry to say that when some people get to age 50, they say, Well, that's the end, I'll never have to do sex again. They lay down first and get up last! But in your sixties, everything is sweeter. You have more time.
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
Continue to be bold, courageous. Try to choose the wisest thing and once you've chosen the wisest thing go out and try to achieve it. Be it.
Maya Angelou
Be courageous, but not foolhardy. Walk proud as you are.
Maya Angelou
I couldn't tell fact from fiction, Or if the dream was true My only sure prediction In this world was you. I'd touch your features inchly. Beard love and dared the cost, The sented spiel reeled me unreal And I found my senses lost.
Maya Angelou
Your life is much more important that you can imagine... it is your first treasure.
Maya Angelou
Pretty Women Wonder Where My Secret Lies, Im Not Cute Or Built To Fit A Fashion Models Size.
Maya Angelou
Difficult is a far cry from impossible. The distance between these two lies hope. Hope and fear cannot occupy the same space at the same time. Invite one to stay.
Maya Angelou
You can never go home again, but the truth is you can never leave home, so it's all right.
Maya Angelou
You should be angry. You must not be bitter. Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. It doesn't do anything to the object of its displeasure. So use that anger. You write it. You paint it. You dance it. You march it. You vote it. You do everything about it. You talk it. Never stop talking it.
Maya Angelou
Strong women- precious jewels all- their humanness is evident in their accessibility. We are able to enter into the spirit of these women and rejoice in their warmth and courage.
Maya Angelou
If I'm here, I'll be trying to be a better human being, a better writer, a better friend and a better beloved.
Maya Angelou
Nobody can enjoy unless we all enjoy, truly enjoy.
Maya Angelou
The idea of overcoming is always fascinating to me. It's fascinating because few of us realize how much energy we have expended just to be here today. I don't think we give ourselves enough credit for the overcoming.
Maya Angelou
Life loves the liver of it.
Maya Angelou
I know that I've been guided by God. I am obedient.
Maya Angelou
Whatever you want to do, if you want to be great at it, you have to love it and be able to make sacrifices for it.
Maya Angelou
I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels.
