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.

I was happily surprised this weekend to actually find something worth reading in the ever declining weekend papers. The Guardian interviewed Maya Angelou and I was transported immediatley back to the time I fist read her, age 16. She is as inspirational now as she was to my teenage self and so, if it's the last thing you do this weekend listen to her reciting her own poem "Still I Rise." Look out particularly for the part which questions...

"Does my sexiness upset you?

Does it come as a surprise

That I dance like I've got diamonds

At the meeting of my thighs?"

Watch her read it here
