April 4th: Maya Angelou's birthday

Writer Maya Angelou was born on this date in 1928. Here are 10 Maya Angelou quotes:


  1. My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humour, and some style.
  2. Everybody born comes from the Creator trailing wisps of glory. We come from the Creator with creativity.
  3. Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.
  4. Spirit is an invisible force made visible in all life.
  5. Easy reading is damn hard writing.
  6. There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
  7. If you have only one smile in you give it to the people you love.
  8. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
  9. You may be given a load of sour lemons, why not try to make a dozen lemon meringue pies?
  10. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
