Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can't take their eyes off you. - Maya Angelou

I don't think she ever knew that a deep-brooding love hung over everything she touched.

not only was cleanliness next to Godliness, dirtiness was the inventor of misery.

There were people who went to sleep last night,
poor and rich and white and black,
but they will never wake again.

And those dead folks would give anything at all
for just five minutes of this weather
or ten minutes of plowing.

So you watch yourself about complaining.

What you're supposed to do
when you don't like a thing is change it.
If you can't change it,
change the way you think about it.
