It's hard because people think they have something to lose and the truth is they have everything to gain in trying to love somebody.
Maya AngelouThe poetry you read has been written for you, each of you - black, white, Hispanic, man, woman, gay, straight.
Maya AngelouThe ship of my life may or may not be sailing on calm and amiable seas. The challenging days of my existence may or may not be bright and promising. Stormy or sunny days, glorious or lonely nights, I maintain an attitude of gratitude. If I insist on being pessimistic, there is always tomorrow. Today I am blessed.
