In her past professional lives, Lisa has served the masses as the Editorial Director at Brit + Co, Bieber Whisperer at J-14, Golden Girls Fan Club Prez at Lifetime and Talk Show Host Understudy to Katie Couric. Now, she's taking on the sports world at The Relish, teaching Hairography 101 in her spare time and will forever be trying to fill the hole Zayn Malik left in her heart.
We dogeared the pages of her books in school, choked back a tear or two hearing her words ring true during a dozen graduation speeches and still post her wisdom to our virtual and real life inspiration boards. To celebrate the life of legendary author, memoirist, poet and civil rights advocate Dr. Maya Angelou, who passed away today at the age of 86, here are 10 of her greatest quotes. Pin ’em, print ’em, memorize ’em, keep ’em with you at all times.
