Maya Angelou
Moderation in all things. And even moderation in moderation. Don't get too much moderation, you know?
Maya Angelou
Do not be wedded forever to fear, yoked eternally to brutishness.
Maya Angelou

Maya Angelou
Alone, all alone Nobody, but nobody Can make it out here alone.
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.

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
When you learn, teach, when you get, give.
Maya Angelou
Courage - you develop courage by doing small things like just as if you wouldn't want to pick up a 100-pound weight without preparing yourself.
