"Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host; it doesn't do a damn thing to the object!"
Just lovely
“People are really much greater than they think themselves” Dr. Maya Angelou is such an inspirational woman. Even though she’s gone her words and teachings still live on...🌸

Sure I'll sail them.
Show me the boat,
If it'll float,
I'll sail it.
Men?
Yes, I'll love them.
If they've got the style,
To make me smile,
I'll love them.
Life?
'Course I'll live it.
Let me have breath,
Just to my death,
And I'll live it.
Failure?
I'm not ashamed to tell it,
I never learned to spell it.
Not failure.
Mrs. V. B.
A gift for ever
I was watching Adi Krasta early on today talking about digital television in Albania. When he finished talking her poem I Rise came up. I feel like crying now.
The story she told about her 'portly' husband cracked me up. What a wonderful woman!
B I cried laughing - he fat ain’t he?!
wow God made her wonderful inside she will never be forgotten🙌🙏👊
Yeeeees! He did! Powerful Woman
Maya is the height of forgiveness and tolerance!
I'm so grateful.
A remarkable, delightful, wonderful woman, whose words, wit and wisdom have enriched and taught generations and will continue to do so.
How lucky many of us were to live when she lived.
Thank you, Maya.

This wonderful comment at the end of the interview seemed to me to be a sure sign of the rapport achieved between interviewer and interviewee. It was a very intelligent interview with Dr Angelou responding with wit and wisdom.

This interviewer squandered this opportunity
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
6:09 I want to write down so I can look at it from time to time, she really made beautiful poetry just elaborating on a point. One of a kind♥️
9:11 at this point I just want to bookmark different moments, “what I have is a readiness to rage” this phrase is amazing!!
21:50...
Print it out then frame it so you can easily see it everyday. Words that resonate with us should be honored in this way, I think.
Thank you God for this woman. Hopefully I'll make it to heaven and see you there! X
💜💜💜💜💜
Powerful Woman
I feel both were attracted to each other intellectually.
I hope to have as much substance as she. I want that.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
History
U r supper
I truly respect her - and love her for always making me laugh. Hope she has fun on the other side ... No! She´ll create it ...
💎💎💎💎💎
She was God's ambassador
This is the most witty discourse i ever been tunned to. It sounds like a posthumus recall of life. Be it in hell or heven. It is eternal. Exisential not spiritual.
In this world of toil and sin, a man's head grows bald but not his chin - Maya Angelou
Power Women were amongst MLK's Circle including Nina Simone.😊🏭💒
He played
A sax
Had no B.O.
But his whiskers scratched
So she let him go

24:25
Why they always wanna talk about her rape story 😒 please sir they are others to know someone
I wonder what she would of thought of what Donald Trump has done to America... 😐
No Mami
Watch "The truth about maya angelou" CZcams
Yeah, what about it?
It's a very polarised view of life
Dr Maya Angelou never said she was perfect this woman right here kept it real and is giving great advice from her own trials and tribulations. The guy making those pointless CZcams videos (Stephen Molyneux) enjoys attacking people when Maya has the class to try and uplift people.
3:13, and 3:32 lol put them together

She reminds me of Philip Seymour Hoffman
Lol
If being gay is "normal" then why would those in support of gay rights deride someone who was a "hooker".We would be ready to put Marylin Monroe one of the worlds preeminent "hooker" on a stamp, Elvis Presely a "crack head" as the "greatest" something. Call William Shakespear with his dubious habits a "great" and yet chastise others for their liscenstious ways. Prentending that we are ourselves are highly favored since no one..at least that's what we think knows about the living and breathing skeletons in our closets..
Seems like a wonderful woman, though i dont see the relevance for British people
I say the same thing about Shakespeare all the time. Why the needless persecution and torture.
brokecreole Which persecution and torture?
***** You from US? I only ask because the black - white racial tension in UK is almost none existent compared to the US. Black people in the UK are well integrated into our nation's culture.
Racists in UK target/blame Muslims and Eastern Europeans mostly
***** I'm white and English
***** i dont know what white Britain means
Unfortunately, "Eskimo" is a racist term for Inuit Peoples.
Yeah....
Thats what I was also thinking.
They r called iniuits If I remember right?
I said uups!
But the context Was not respectless toward them.....
Thats why I accepted it.
But u r 100% correct!
Why do Hardtalk interviewers seem soul-less or a bit 'hard' if you will. They are not engaged with the human they are talking to. Its all about "gotcha" spirits, in their choice of word or attitude. pathetic actually. Oh Maya, Pardon me. RIP
I have seen similar negative opinions expressed about Tim Sebastian's style on the Nina Simone HARDtalk interview. I believe the style is misunderstood - the programme is called HARDtalk - the questions are relevant, well researched, and are intended to draw out the character of the interviewee. The programme is not an exercise in sycophancy.
@@edwardlever2462 nobody wants a sycophancy interview. You can extract information & character in a less hard way. For instance, use psychology, cajoling or superficial flattering that deceives the ego therefore, your subject relaxes and opens up. This confrontational style is unpleasant to the audience who feel offended such rude air invades his living room.
@@tonyausten2168 Maya Angelou was without doubt a highly intelligent and talented woman. I do not think she would respond well to superficial flattering or cajoling. She was far too smart for that. I do not see the style as confrontational. There seemed to be no rancour evident on either side during the interview. I do not know whether you are based in the USA or the UK. The HARDtalk programmes are a long running series produced for the UK audience. I do not think UK audiences find the style offensive. It is not intended to be a cosy chat show. Perhaps some audiences do not get that.
@@edwardlever2462 I am based in the US. My Geography does not impede my discernment. OF course, we can agree to disagree. The superficial flattery & cajoling is usually a tac tic used by famous Talk show hosts like Oprah or Dave Letterman, where Celebrities- Whom Maya is one by the way-- usually respond to flattery. Its all about courtesy tactics to make your guest relax & not be nervous. Hardtalk seem to relish to make their guests nervous or sweat. To push their guest off the edge, for what? Hoping or expecting a good Television reality show drama moment? Go count how many times guests walk out of a Hardtalk interviews. Its really dramatic, which is unnecessary. I am bothered by rudeness disguised in the veneer of 'Hardtalk reporting' Its a bit disingenuous.
@@tonyausten2168 I think we will have to agree to disagree. I cannot recall seeing an instance of a guest walking out of a HARDtalk interview, although a Google search revealed that someone did in 2009. As you have raised the matter, perhaps you would be kind enough to direct me to the countless other examples you say you have seen.
