More quotes by Maya Angelou
Try to be all you can be to be the best human being you can be. Try to be that in your church, in your temple. Try to be that in your classroom. Do it because it is right to do.
Maya Angelou

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
We do the best we can with what we know, and when we know better, we do better.
Maya Angelou
I am a child of God. I always carry that with me.

While the rest of the world has been improving technology, Ghana has been improving the quality of man's humanity to man.
Maya Angelou
And if a person is religious, I think it's good, it helps you a bit. But if you're not, at least you can have the sense that there is a condition inside you which looks at the stars with amazement and awe.
Maya Angelou
I am a Woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal Woman, that's me.
