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 to 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."
