It's one of the greatest gift...

It's one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself, to forgive. Forgive everybody.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

It is impossible to struggle ...

It is impossible to struggle for civil rights, equal rights for blacks, without including whites. Because equal rights, fair play, justice, are all like the air: we all have it, or none of us has it. That is the truth of it.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

Life loves to be taken by the...

Life loves to be taken by the lapel and told: 'I'm with you kid. Let's go.'

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

My mission in life is not mer...

My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

You are the sum total of ever...

You are the sum total of everything you've ever seen, heard, eaten, smelled, been told, forgot - it's all there. Everything influences each of us, and because of that I try to make sure that my experiences are positive.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

There's a world of difference...

There's a world of difference between truth and facts. Facts can obscure the truth.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

What is a fear of living? It'...

What is a fear of living? It's being preeminently afraid of dying. It is not doing what you came here to do, out of timidity and spinelessness. The antidote is to take full responsibility for yourself - for the time you take up and the space you occupy. If you don't know what you're here to do, then just do some good.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

We are braver and wiser becau...

We are braver and wiser because they existed, those strong women and strong men... We are who we are because they were who they were. It's wise to know where you come from, who called your name.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

Bitterness is like cancer. It...

Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

If we lose love and self resp...

If we lose love and self respect for each other, this is how we finally die.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

My mother said I must always ...

My mother said I must always be intolerant of ignorance but understanding of illiteracy. That some people, unable to go to school, were more educated and more intelligent than college professors.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

I learned a long time ago the...

I learned a long time ago the wisest thing I can do is be on my own side, be an advocate for myself and others like me.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

Life loves the liver of it. ...

Life loves the liver of it.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

The thing to do, it seems to ...

The thing to do, it seems to me, is to prepare yourself so you can be a rainbow in somebody else's cloud. Somebody who may not look like you. May not call God the same name you call God - if they call God at all. I may not dance your dances or speak your language. But be a blessing to somebody. That's what I think.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

It is time for parents to tea...

It is time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity there is beauty and there is strength.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

Most people don't grow up. It...

Most people don't grow up. It's too damn difficult. What happens is most people get older. That's the truth of it. They honor their credit cards, they find parking spaces, they marry, they have the nerve to have children, but they don't grow up.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

I would be a liar, a hypocrit...

I would be a liar, a hypocrite, or a fool - and I'm not any of those - to say that I don't write for the reader. I do. But for the reader who hears, who really will work at it, going behind what I seem to say. So I write for myself and that reader who will pay the dues.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

We can learn to see each othe...

We can learn to see each other and see ourselves in each other and recognize that human beings are more alike than we are unalike.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

If we don't plant the right t...

If we don't plant the right things, we will reap the wrong things. It goes without saying. And you don't have to be, you know, a brilliant biochemist and you don't have to have an IQ of 150. Just common sense tells you to be kind, ninny, fool. Be kind.

Maya Angelou 1013 quotes

You can't forgive without lov...

You can't forgive without loving. And I don't mean sentimentality. I don't mean mush. I mean having enough courage to stand up and say, 'I forgive. I'm finished with it.'
