Maya Angelou: Nothing Can Dim the Light Which Shines From Within


 Quotes From a Beloved Elder

I long, as does every human being, to be at home wherever I find myself.

If we lose love and self respect for each other, this is how we finally die.

One isn't necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest.

We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.

Nothing can dim the light which shines from within. 

- Maya Angelou
