More quotes by Maya Angelou
We are not our brother’s keeper we are our brother and we are our sister. We must look past complexion and see community.
Maya Angelou
Love is a condition so powerful it may be that which pulls the stars in the firmament. It may be that which pushes and urges the blood in the veins. Courage: you have to have courage to love somebody because you risk everything-ever ything.
Maya Angelou
Sunday, if I'm lucky, I'll go to church or listen to some good spiritual advice on the television or on the radio. I take three or four baths to try to cleanse myself, so I'm fresh for Monday.
Maya Angelou
Early on, I was so impressed with Charles Dickens. I grew up in the South, in a little village in Arkansas, and the whites in my town were really mean, and rude. Dickens, I could tell, wouldn't be a man who would curse me out and talk to me rudely.
Maya Angelou
Anything that works against you can also work for you once you understand the Principle of Reverse.
Maya Angelou
Facts can obscure the truth.
Maya Angelou

Maya Angelou
I am a woman phenomenally, phenomenal woman that is your grandmother, that is your mother, that is your sister, that is you and that is me.
Maya Angelou
Everybody born comes from the Creator trailing wisps of glory. We come from the Creator with creativity. I think that each one of us is born with creativity.
Maya Angelou
It is sad but true that sometimes we need the tragedy to help us to see how human we are and how we are more alike than we are different.
Maya Angelou
Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean.
Maya Angelou
Yet it is only love which sets us free.
Maya Angelou
We need to not be in denial about what we've done, what we've come through. It will help us if we all do that.
Maya Angelou
Look what you've already come through! Don't deny it. Say I'm stronger than I thought I was
Maya Angelou
Love is that condition in the human spirit so profound that it allows me to survive, and better than that, to thrive with passion, compassion, and style.
Maya Angelou
I want to be a good human being. I'm doing my best, and I'm working at it.
Maya Angelou
Courage, I don't think anybody is born with courage. I think you may be born with a flair to braggadocio, you know. That's not courage.
Maya Angelou
I never expected anyone to take care of me, but in my wildest dreams and juvenile yearnings, I wanted the house with the picket fence from June Allyson movies. I knew that was yearning like one yearns to fly.
Maya Angelou
My son is the best thing that ever happened to me. And through me - to a lot of people.
