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 AngelouMy greatest blessing has been the birth of my son. My next greatest blessing has been my ability to turn people into children of mine.
Maya AngelouI have enough of life in me to make somebody jealous enough to want to knock me down. I have so much courage in me that I have the effrontery, the incredible gall to stand up. That's it. That's how you get to know who you are.
Maya AngelouI have no modesty. Modesty is a learned affectation. It's like decal stuck up on a person.
Maya AngelouYou may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them. Try to be a rainbow in someone else's cloud. Do not complain. Make every effort to change things you do not like. If you cannot make a change, change the way you have been thinking. You might find a new solution.
