Maya Angelou Quotes, Air Quotes, Differences Quotes

There is a world of difference between facts and the truth. You can have so many facts that you don't deal with the truth. You never get to the truth.

And as important as the air.

It is impossible that a genius - at least a literary genius - can ever be discovered by his intimates; they are so close to him that he is out of focus to them and they can't get at his proportions; they can't perceive that there is any considerable difference between his bulk and their own.

Go my way. You will get freedom and justice and much less difference between people than you do in the Soviet Union.
