Maya Angelou
I am capable of what every other human is capable of. This is one of the great lessons of war and life.
Maya Angelou
By no amount of agile exercising of a wistful imagination could my mother have been called lenient. Generous she was indulgent never. Kind, yes, permissive, never. In her world, people she accepted paddled their own canoes, pulled their own weight, put their own shoulders to their own plows and pushed like hell.
Maya Angelou
A friend may be waiting behind a stranger's face.
Maya Angelou
Exchange love for hate...Thereby, making the present comfortable and the future promising.
Maya Angelou
