A thoughtful quote from Maya Angelou to help kickstart your weekend!

Maya Angelou (1928-2014) was a civil rights activist, American poet, and memoirist. Throughout her life, Angelou published many works of art, most famously her 1969 memoir “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” which made history as the first nonfiction bestseller by an African American woman.
