“I love love and I love loving love”
Letter to My Daughter, Maya Angelou
The quotes from Letter to My Daughter that I loved and made me think the most while reading Angelou’s profound essays.
“‘Macon, Georgia is down south, New York City is up south.’
Blithering ignorance can be found wherever you choose to live.”
“The parents had never had a language, which allowed them to speak to one another as equals, and now their children were creating a way which would allow them to have a dialogue.”
“The epitome of sophistication is utter simplicity.”
“Be certain that you do not die without having done something wonderful for humanity.”
“You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”
