More quotes by 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
Each one of us has lived through some devastation, some loneliness, some weather superstorm or spiritual superstorm, when we look at each other we must say, I understand. I understand how you feel because I have been there myself. We must support each other and empathize with each other because each of us is more alike than we are unalike.
Maya Angelou
As soon as healing takes place, go out and heal somebody else.
Maya Angelou
We are missing Michael. But we do know we had him, and we are the world.
Maya Angelou
My great blessing is my son, but I have daughters. I have white ones and Black ones and fat ones and thin ones and pretty ones and plain. I have gay ones and straight. I have daughters. I have Asian ones, I have Jewish ones, I have Muslim ones.
Maya Angelou
I long for the time when all human history is taught as one history, because it really is.
Maya Angelou
Everybody in the world wants the same thing...to be needed...a job that he/she can do well...to love somebody...Everybody...There's no mystery.
Maya Angelou
The caged bird sings with a fearful trill, of things unknown, but longed for still, and his tune is heard on the distant hill, for the caged bird sings of freedom.
Maya Angelou
My greatest blessing has been the birth of my son. My next greatest blessing has been my ability to turn people into children of mine.
Maya Angelou
Life loves the person who dares to live it.
Maya Angelou
You may be pretty or plain, heavy or thin, gay or straight, poor or rich. But remember this: In an election, every voice is equally powerful -- don't underestimate your vote. Voting is the great equalizer.
Maya Angelou
I think Clinton, after getting into office and into Washington, was shocked at being bludgeoned. 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
Just as hope rings through laughter, it can also shine through tears.
Maya Angelou
At our best, we're all teachers
Maya Angelou
You may not remember what a person said to you, you may not remember what a person did to you, but you will never forget how a person made you feel!
Maya Angelou
People are too busy putting things under microscopes and so forth. Creativity is greater than the sum of its parts.
Maya Angelou
You only are free when you realize you belong no place - you belong every place - no place at all. The price is high. The reward is great.
Maya Angelou
I keep hitting the escape button but I am still here!
Maya Angelou
Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope.
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.
