I believe that people want the scent of love, more than anything else. And I don't mean sentimentality, I don't mean mush. I mean that idea, that human beings are more alike than we are different. And that means that I can love you. I don't mean support you in bad things you do, that I can understand because you're a human being.
Maya AngelouA person is the product of their dreams. So make sure to dream great dreams. And then try to live your dream.
Maya AngelouPeople are too busy putting things under microscopes and so forth. Creativity is greater than the sum of its parts.
Maya AngelouIt is only out of ignorance that people are cruel, because they really don't think it will come back.
Maya AngelouLook what you've already come through! Don't deny it. You've already come through some things, which are very painful. If you've been alive until you're 35, you have gone through some pain. It cost you something. And you've come through it. So at least look at that. And have a sense to look at yourself and say, "Well, wait a minute. I'm stronger than I thought I was."
