Maya Angelou interview on HARDtalk - BBC News 

"Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host; it doesn't do a damn thing to the object!"

"If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude." - Maya Angelou

“People are really much greater than they think themselves” Dr. Maya Angelou is such an inspirational woman. Even though she’s gone her words and teachings still live on...🌸

May Angelou - phenomenal woman, you have provided me with many hours of literary bliss. May your soul rest in eternal peace.

"Life, yes I love it. Just Give me the breathe up until til death and I'll live it"..........Stops the video and sits for 60 minutes in silence.

Ships? Sure I'll sail them. Show me the boat, If it'll float, I'll sail it. Men? Yes, I'll love them. If they've got the style, To make me smile, I'll love them. Life? 'Course I'll live it. Let me have breath, Just to my death, And I'll live it. Failure? I'm not ashamed to tell it, I never learned to spell it. Not failure. Mrs. V. B.

This is the most witty discourse i ever been tunned to. It sounds like a posthumus recall of life. Be it in hell or heven. It is eternal. Exisential not spiritual.

She was God's ambassador

In this world of toil and sin, a man's head grows bald but not his chin - Maya Angelou

Power Women were amongst MLK's Circle including Nina Simone.😊🏭💒

If being gay is "normal" then why would those in support of gay rights deride someone who was a "hooker".We would be ready to put Marylin Monroe one of the worlds preeminent "hooker" on a stamp, Elvis Presely a "crack head" as the "greatest" something. Call William Shakespear with his dubious habits a "great" and yet chastise others for their liscenstious ways. Prentending that we are ourselves are highly favored since no one..at least that's what we think knows about the living and breathing skeletons in our closets..

Seems like a wonderful woman, though i dont see the relevance for British people

Unfortunately, "Eskimo" is a racist term for Inuit Peoples.

Why do Hardtalk interviewers seem soul-less or a bit 'hard' if you will. They are not engaged with the human they are talking to. Its all about "gotcha" spirits, in their choice of word or attitude. pathetic actually. Oh Maya, Pardon me. RIP
