About this Quote

This quote by Maya Angelou talks to the importance of love and self respect in our lives. Without these 2 important aspects, our lives end up being worthless and empty. Love and self respect are the foundations of a healthy and satisfying life. Without them, we are unable to form meaningful relationships with others, and our lives become lacking joy and function. We need to show love and regard for ourselves and for others in order to live a life of significance and fulfillment. Without these two components, we are not able to genuinely connect with others and our lives end up being hollow and empty. This quote acts as a reminder that without love and self regard, our lives will ultimately pertain to an end. We must strive to show love and regard for ourselves and for others in order to live a life of happiness and purpose.
