More quotes by Oprah Winfrey
I will not be taking a paternity test, ever!
Oprah Winfrey
What I know for sure is this: The big secret in life is that there is no big secret. Whatever your goal for this year is, you can get there - as long as you're willing to be honest with yourself about the preparation and work involved. There are no back doors, no free rides. There's just you, this moment, and a choice.
Oprah Winfrey
Dream the biggest dream for yourself. Hold the highest vision of life for yourself.
Oprah Winfrey
What would I do if I wasn't afraid?
Oprah Winfrey
A gift isn't a gift unless it has meaning. Just giving things to people, especially children, create the expectation of more things.
Oprah Winfrey
I don't think you ever stop giving. I really don't. I think it's an on-going process. And it's not just about being able to write a check. It's being able to touch somebody's life.
Oprah Winfrey
Getting my library card was like citizenship it was like American citizenship.
Oprah Winfrey
Be loving to yourself and others will see that love reciprocated. This rule works every time
Oprah Winfrey
This past Thanksgiving, my father was at the farm, and I had all 11 dogs in the house with a father who never allowed dogs in the house. And he got up to leave the table and came back and Solomon was in his chair. And he says, This dog is in my chair. And I said, It's the other way around, you're sitting in his chair.
Oprah Winfrey
You can take from every experience what it has to offer you. And you cannot be defeated if you just keep taking one breath followed by another.
Oprah Winfrey
Don't waste your time in the race looking back to see what the other guy is doing. It's not about the other guy. It's about what can you do. You just need to run that race as hard as you can. You need to give it everything you've got, all the time, for yourself.
Oprah Winfrey
Turn your wounds into wisdom.
Oprah Winfrey
There are so many people who've come before me who deserved to be tired. Who didn't have the opportunities, who didn't have the access, who didn't have the money, who didn't have the influence, who didn't have the voice.
Oprah Winfrey
I always knew I was a hit record just waiting to happen.
Oprah Winfrey
Before you agree to do anything that might add even the smallest amount of stress to your life, ask yourself: What is my truest intention? Give yourself time to let a yes resound within you. When it's right, I guarantee that your entire body will feel it.
Oprah Winfrey
Listen. Pay attention. Treasure every moment.
Oprah Winfrey
I truly understand that there is a lesson in everything that happens to us. So I tried not to spend my time asking Why did this happen to me? but trying to figure out why I had chosen this.
Oprah Winfrey
We create stress for ourselves because you feel like you have to do it. You have to. I don't feel that anymore
Oprah Winfrey
There is the voice that everybody hears... saying to you, You should do this, you should be this, you ought to, you got to. And then there is the still small voice - for some people not so small - inside every human being that calls you to something that is greater than yourself.
Oprah Winfrey
I have crossed over on the backs of Sojourner Truth, Harriet Tubman, Fannie Lou Hamer, and Madam C. J. Walker. Because of them I can now live the dream. I am the seed of the free, and I know it. I intend to bear great fruit.
