In the flush of love's light, we dare be brave. And suddenly... - Maya Angelou

"Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope."

"I am overwhelmed by the grace and persistence of my people."

"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."

"If I am not good to myself, how can I expect anyone else to be good to me?"

"My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style."
