I did then what I knew how to do. Now that I know better, I do better
American poet, singer, memoirist, and civil rights activist. She published seven autobiographies, three books of essays, several books of poetry, and is credited with a list of plays, movies, and television shows.
It is man's natural sickness to believe that he possesses the truth
He who learns but does not think, is lost! He who thinks but does not learn is in great danger
I make it a rule never to smoke while I’m sleeping
Either give me more wine or leave me alone
If you don’t know a thing never hesitate or feel ashamed to learn it.
There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind
