"Bitterness is cancer - it eats upon..." - Quote by Maya Angelou

“Home is a refuge not only from the world, but a refuge from my worries, my troubles, my concerns. I like beautiful things around me. I like to be beautiful because it delights my eyes and my soul is lifted up.”

“Original thinking migrates each day in search of nourishment.”

“It's still scary every time I go back to the past. Each morning, my heart catches. When I get there, I remember how the light was, where the draft was coming from, what odors were in the air. When I write, I get all the weeping out.”

“I send you a kaffis of mustard seed, that you may taste and acknowledge the bitterness of my victory.”

“Much of what I say might sound bitter, but it's the truth. Much of what I say might sound like it's stirring up trouble, but it's the truth. Much of what I say might sound like its hate, but it's the truth”

“There is no bitterness to be compared with that between two people who once loved.”

“When you THROW DIRT at people, you're not doing a thing but LOSING GROUND.”

“A positive mind finds a way it can be done; a negative mind looks for all the ways it can't be done.”

“May I examine my mind in all actions and as soon as a negative state occurs, since it endangers myself and others, may I firmly face and avert it.”
