About this Quote

This quote by Maya Angelou speaks to the durability of the human spirit. It encourages us to keep going, even in the face of hardship. It reminds us that life is full of difficulties and that we will inevitably experience defeats. Nevertheless, it likewise reminds us that we should not be beat by these defeats. We need to not allow them to break our spirit or to stop us from pursuing our goals. Instead, we should use them as learning experiences and utilize them to become more powerful and smarter. We need to not allow our beats to specify us, however rather use them to move us forward. This quote is a suggestion that no matter the number of times we might be torn down, we should never ever give up. We should keep fighting and never ever succumb to beat.
