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.

More quotes by Maya Angelou
I believe that the most important single thing, beyond discipline and creativity is daring to dare.
Maya Angelou
A friend may be waiting behind a stranger's face.
Maya Angelou
I sustain myself with the love of family.
Maya Angelou
I'm convinced that I'm a child of God. That's wonderful, exhilarating, liberating, full of promise. But the burden which goes along with that is, I'm convinced that everybody is a child of God. . . . I weep a lot. I thank God I laugh a lot, too. The main thing in one's own private world is to try to laugh as much as you cry.
Maya Angelou
I work very hard, and I play very hard. I'm grateful for life. And I live it - I believe life loves the liver of it. I live it.
Maya Angelou

I know that I'm not the easiest person to live with. The challenge I put on myself is so great that the person I live with feels himself challenged. I bring a lot to bear, and I don't know how not to.
Maya Angelou
We do the best we can with what we know, and when we know better, we do better.
Maya Angelou
I am a Woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal Woman, that's me.
Maya Angelou
Be wary when a naked person offers you his shirt
Maya Angelou
I'm considered wise, and sometimes I see myself as knowing. Most of the time, I see myself as wanting to know. And I see myself as a very interested person. I've never been bored in my life.
Maya Angelou
Have enough courage to love.
Maya Angelou
Look what you've already come through! Don't deny it. Say I'm stronger than I thought I was
