Additional quotes by Maya Angelou

"The intensity with which young people live demands that they "blank out" as often as possible."

In the flush of love's light
we dare be brave
And suddenly we see
that love costs all we are
and will ever be.
Yet it is only love
which sets us free.

A bizarre sensation pervades a relationship of pretense. No truth seems true. A simple morning's greeting and response appear loaded with innuendo and fraught with implications. ... Each nicety becomes more sterile and each withdrawal more permanent.

The world had taken a deep breath and was having doubts about continuing to revolve. - Maya Angelou
