More quotes by Oprah Winfrey
Material success is rewarding and a lot of fun, but it's not the most important thing in my life because I know when this is all over, the Master isn't going to ask me how many things I owned or how many television shows I did. I think the questions will be, What did I do to make a difference? Did I learn to live with love in my heart?

Oprah Winfrey
Every time you state what you want or believe, you're the first to hear it. It's a message to both you and others about what you think is possible. Don't put a ceiling on yourself
Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey
Right now you are one choice away from a new beginning.
Oprah Winfrey
This year I am choosing to live beyond my wildest dreams. I wonder where they'll take me.
Oprah Winfrey
Have a similar outlook as a monarch. A ruler is not reluctant to come up short. Disappointment is an alternate steppingstone to significance.
Oprah Winfrey
If you live in the past and allow the past to define who you are, then you never grow.
Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey
Don't complain about what you don't have. Use what you've got. To do less than your best is a sin. Every single one of us has the power for greatness, because greatness is determined by service-to yourself and to others.
Oprah Winfrey
The way through the challenge is to get still and ask yourself, 'What is the next right move? What is the next right move?' and then, from that space, make the next right move and the next right move.
Oprah Winfrey
