Maya Angelou Says She “Will Not Be Divided” From Common

Angelou referred to Common as a genius and said she would not be divided from him.
“If you want to control the people, separate the people and you can rule them. Divide them and you can conquer them, I will not be divided from Common,” said Dr. Maya Angelou as she quoted Nicolo Machieveli.
