Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey
I know who I am, and the thing about power for me is that it's connected to a source that's obviously greater than myself. Any time you can connect to the source and understand that that's where all of your energy, your creativity, your joy and your triumph come from, I consider that to be authentic power.
Oprah Winfrey
So, that is my final lesson from the universe - you just do what you need to do, and stay on track.
Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey
If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.
Oprah Winfrey
