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

Maya Angelou
Raising kids is like nailing Jell-O to a tree.
Maya Angelou

Maya Angelou
