"Maya Angelou is not what she has done or written or spoken, it's how she did it all. She moved through the world with unshakeable calm, confidence, and a fiery, fierce grace and abounding love," Winfrey told Google.
Cox said Angelou's work is "filled with such incredible wisdom and spiritual teachings." "It feels like the ultimate privilege to have the opportunity to speak her words," Cox said.
Original image has been replaced. Credit: Mashable Keys said she was "honoured to be able to say her words." "Maya Angelou, I love her so much. Everything she represented as a woman, her creativity, her story, who she is," says Keys.
The animation can be viewed on on Google's homepage today, and the Google Doodle page.
