"Love recognizes no barriers...." - Quote by Maya Angelou

“Shakespeare - I was very influenced - still am - by Shakespeare. I couldn't believe that a white man in the 16th century could so know my heart.”

“You want me to do something... tell me I can't do it.”

“To those who are given much, much is expected.”

“Nonviolence is absolute commitment to the way of love. Love is not emotional bash; it is not empty sentimentalism. It is the active outpouring of one's whole being into the being of another.”

“Sleep late, have fun, get wild, drink whisky and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind but falling in love and not getting arrested.”

“Marriage must incessantly contend with a monster that devours everything: familiarity.”

“There are differences between us. But it doesn't make sense to emphasize that, because my future and yours is connected with everyone else's. So we have to take seriously our concern for all of humanity. When we focus on our individuality, humanity inevitably suffers. And once humanity suffers, each one of us will also suffer.”

“The child as a monument to the passion of two people; the will to oneness in two.”

“England is safe, if true within itself.”
