The US post Office "mistakenly" printed the quote as Maya Angelou's writing because Maya Angelou plagiarized Joan Walsh Anglund's work. You may wish to clarify the Wikipedia entry. The Post Office did not make a mistake. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.103.162.4 (talk • contribs) 12:44, 9 April 2015
98.103.162.4, before updating Wikipedia you would need to find WP:RS that show that Angelou plagiarized any of Anglund's work. At present WP:RS are reporting that it was a postal service mistake. When Angelou gave talks that used that quote it's entirely possible she credited Angelou. --Marc Kupper|talk19:01, 9 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
