More quotes by Maya Angelou
A wise woman wishes to be no one's enemy a wise woman refuses to be anyone's victim.
Maya Angelou
Success is loving life and daring to live it.
Maya Angelou
We are missing Michael. But we do know we had him, and we are the world.
Maya Angelou
We grow despite the horror that we feed upon our own tomorrow. We grow.
Maya Angelou
Words mean more than what is set down on paper. It takes the human voice to infuse them with deeper meaning.
Maya Angelou
Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.
Maya Angelou
I don't trust anyone who doesn't laugh.
Maya Angelou
The happy heart runs with the river, floats on the air, lifts to the music, soars with the eagle, hopes with the prayer.
Maya Angelou
If the door has been opened and I've been invited, or if I'm not invited and I somehow know I'm supposed to go in there, I put myself together and go in, praying all the while. I try to learn something before I go in. I try to show some respect of the place I'm going into.
Maya Angelou
Love builds up the broken wall and straightens the crooked path. Love keeps the stars in the firmament and imposes rhythm on the ocean tides. Each of us is created of it and I suspect each of us was created for it.
Maya Angelou
I'm a serious aficionada of country music - Reba McEntire, Toby Keith, Montgomery Gentry. I've even written some songs. They haven't done anything of mine yet. But it's only a matter of time.
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
Don't let anybody raise you. You've been raised.
Maya Angelou
Don't bring negative to my door.
Maya Angelou
If you're for the right thing, you do it without thinking.
Maya Angelou
Give yourself time just to be with yourself.
Maya Angelou
I encourage courtesy. To accept nothing less than courtesy, and to give nothing less than courtesy.
Maya Angelou
Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances.
Maya Angelou
As far as I knew white women were never lonely, except in books. White men adored them, Black men desired them and Black women worked for them.
Maya Angelou
I believe that people want the scent of love, more than anything else. And I don't mean sentimentality, I don't mean mush. I mean that idea, that human beings are more alike than we are different. And that means that I can love you. I don't mean support you in bad things you do, that I can understand because you're a human being.
