Oprah Winfrey
It isn't until you come to a spiritual understanding of who you are - not necessarily a religious feeling, but deep down, the spirit within - that you can begin to take control.

Oprah Winfrey
If you live in the past and allow the past to define who you are, then you never grow.

Oprah Winfrey
If you are a woman living, you've been done wrong by a man.
