In April, Maya Angelou was interviewed by Oprah on her 70+ birthday. Oprah
asked her what she thought of growing older. And, there on television, she
said it was "exciting." Regarding body changes, she said there were many,
occurring every day...like her breasts. They seem to be in a race to see
which will reach her waist, first. The audience laughed so hard they cried.
She is such a simple and honest woman, with so much wisdom in her words!

Maya Angelou said this: "I've learned that no matter what happens, or how
bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow." "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 regardless of your relationship with your
parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life." "I've learned
that making a "living" is not the same thing as "making a life." "I've
learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance." "I've learned that
you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need
be able to throw some things back.""I've learned that whenever I decide
something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision." "I've
learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one." "I've learned
that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm
hug, or just a friendly pat on the back." "I've learned that I still have a
lot to learn." "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."
