Maya Angelou

"I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

"I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance."

"I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one."

"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."
