'You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I'll rise.'

I love this poem very much, because it's so meaningful to me in lots of ways 1 reason is because I always been treated in a wrong by till this one day I looked up this poem I have feel in love with it and it's now to this day I love Maya Angelou and guess what to this day I would say to people who be rude or hurt me i quote her poem to theme: so this why I love it.

Wow. Very inspirational. Thank you. I think Women now are told to be what is expected of them and to see a Woman stand up to the plate and be what she wants and not give a care of what anyone thinks, thats the Woman I will look up to.
