"Nous avons besoin de joie comme nous avons besoin d'air. Nous avons besoin d'amour comme nous avons besoin d'eau. Nous avons besoin les uns des autres comme nous avons besoin de la terre que nous partageons."
— Maya Angelou

Simplified Meaning:
Just like we need air to breathe and water to survive, we also need joy and love to live happily. Joy makes our daily lives brighter and more enjoyable. Imagine how sad you'd be if you never laughed or felt happy. Love helps us feel connected and cared for, just like drinking water keeps our bodies healthy. Lastly, we all rely on each other just like we rely on the Earth to provide food, shelter, and everything else we need. Think about how much harder life would be if you had no friends or family to support you. This quote suggests that happiness, affection, and community are just as necessary for our well-being as air, water, and the planet itself.
