More quotes by Maya Angelou
On the day of your birth, the Creator filled countless storehouses, set aside for your use and yours alone.
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
We will sometimes have defeats in life but you can have defeats without being defeated, you could fail without being a failure. When you see failure and defeats as merely part of the process to get to when.
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
Nothing succeeds like success. Get a little success, and then just get a little more.
Maya Angelou
Every day offers you 10,000 reasons to cry, but if you can find just one reason to laugh then you will be all right.
Maya Angelou
A great soul serves everyone all the time. A great soul never dies. It brings us together again and again.
Maya Angelou
When I say 'I am a Christian', I'm not shouting 'I'm saved'. I'm whispering 'I get lost'. That is why I chose this way.
Maya Angelou
Forgive yourself - no one else will.
Maya Angelou
If we are honest and fair, then we are known by that. If we are not, alas, we are known by that as well. What we want to do is do right, but you have to say it, you have to show it, and not stop.
Maya Angelou
Remember, people will judge you by your actions not your intentions. You may have a heart of gold but so does a hard-boiled egg.
Maya Angelou
I speak a number of languages, but none are more beautiful to me than English.
Maya Angelou
You alone are enough. You have nothing to prove to anybody.
Maya Angelou
I believe that each of us comes from the Creator trailing wisps of glory. So at this wonderful, young age of 65, I don't know yet what the Lord has for me to do. I try to live up to the energy and to the calling, but I wouldn't dare say I have even scratched the surface yet.
Maya Angelou
When the human race neglects its weaker members, when the family neglects its weakest one - it's the first blow in a suicidal movement.
Maya Angelou
I wish that we could look into each other's faces, in each other's eyes, and see our own selves. I hope that the children have not been so scarred by their upbringing that they only think fear when they see someone else who looks separate from them.
Maya Angelou
Depending on who I am talking about or who's talking through me - if the person is a kind of hip-hop, or rhythm and blues person, or if the person is a kind of old-fashion gothic, meaning gothic attitude, then that will determine what form the poem will take.
Maya Angelou
In diversity there is beauty and there is strength.
Maya Angelou
People will never forget how you made them feel.
Maya Angelou
To those who have given up on love: I say, Trust life a little bit.
Maya Angelou
