Maya Angelou

I am grateful to be a woman. I must have done something great in another life.

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.

There is a very fine line between loving life and being greedy for it.

Life loves the liver of it.

Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.

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.

Everyone has at least one story, and each of us is funny if we admit it. You have to admit you're the funniest person you've ever heard of.

If you're serious, you really understand that it's important that you laugh as much as possible and admit that you're the funniest person you ever met. You have to laugh. Admit that you're funny. Otherwise, you die in solemnity.

We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.
