Maya Angelou

I’m very blessed that I have a healthy temper. I can become quite angry and burning in anger, but I have never been bitter. Bitterness is a corrosive, terrible acid. It just eats you and makes you sick.

I’ve learned that even when I have pains, I don’t have to be one.

I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life.

I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.

I’ve lived many places on the planet, and I still have friends in many places.

Maya Angelou

I’ve never had a dislike for men. I’ve been badly treated by some. But I’ve been loved greatly by some. I married a lot of them.

Maya Angelou

If I am not good to myself, how can I expect anyone else to be good to me?

Maya Angelou

If I insist on being pessimistic, there is always tomorrow. Today I am blessed.
