Oprah Winfrey

When people show you who they are ... believe them!

Every one of us gets through the tough times because somebody is there, standing in the gap to close it for us.

I finally realized that being grateful to my body was key to giving more love to myself.

You teach people how to treat you.

I believe there's a calling for all of us. I know that every human being has value and purpose. The real work of our lives is to become aware. And awakened. To answer the call.

I am a woman in process. I'm just trying like everybody else. I try to take every conflict, every experience, and learn from it. Life is never dull.

I believe luck is preparation meeting opportunity. If you hadn’t been prepared when the opportunity came along, you wouldn’t have been lucky.

I don't believe in failure. It's not failure if you enjoy the process.

Difficulties come when you don't pay attention to life's whisper. Life always whispers to you first, but if you ignore the whisper, sooner or later you'll get a scream.

I’ve learned not to worry about what might come next.

It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from. The ability to triumph begins with you - always.

The best of times is now.

Whatever you fear most has no power--it is your fear that has the power.

It all boils down to one thing...it is your ‘relationship’ to the source, and that relationship to that which we call God, or don’t call God, or don’t even know...is God. It is ALL that really matters...when you surrender, and stop resisting, and stop trying to change that which you cannot change, but be in the moment, be fully open to the blessings you have already received, and those that are yet to come to you, and stand in that space of gratitude, and honor, and claim that for yourself, and look at where you are, and how far you have come, and what you’ve gotten, and what you’ve accomplished, and who you are. When you can claim ‘that’, and see that, the literal vibration of your life will change. The Vibration of Your Life Will Change.

Everything happens for a reason, even when we are not wise enough to see it. When there is no struggle, there is no strength.

So go ahead. Fall down. The world looks different from the ground.

If you're going to binge, literature is definitely the way to do it.

You aren't your past, you are probability of your future.

With every experience, you alone are painting your own canvas, thought by thought, choice by choice.

Mr. Right is coming, but he's in Africa and he's walking.

Your calling isn’t something that somebody can tell you about. It’s what you feel. It is the thing that gives you juice. The thing that you are supposed to do. And nobody can tell you what that is. You know it inside yourself.

In the mist of Difficulty lies Opportunity.

You are where you are in life because of what you believe is possible for yourself.

I am grateful for the blessings of wealth, but it hasn't changed who I am. My feet are still on the ground. I'm just wearing better shoes.

Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity.

Education is the key to unlocking the world, a passport to freedom.

Follow your instincts. That's where true wisdom manifests itself.

I believe the choice to be excellent begins with aligning your thoughts and words with the intention to require more from yourself.

To love yourself is a never-ending journey.

The big secret in life is there is no secret. Whatever your goal. You can get there if you're willing to work.
