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.

More quotes by Oprah Winfrey
An nice lady in the back...asked what I thought about how we begin to move forward. I think it is up to each individual, which then moves to your family, which moves to your community. Each person, in their own life, let your life be a light for peace, for justice, for all that is good. Just let it shine, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.
Oprah Winfrey
I've always believed free will is a birthright. God even allows us to choose whether to be led by the divine order
Oprah Winfrey
When I was going through menopause, I didn't sleep. I didn't sleep for two years and ended up blowing out my thyroid, and I became nonfunctional. It's difficult to remain fully present if I'm not getting enough sleep, so I work at getting enough.
Oprah Winfrey
If you look at what you have in life, you'll always have more. If you look at what you don't have in life, you'll never have enough.
Oprah Winfrey
We are not servants of some God we are 'our own gods?'
Oprah Winfrey
You can't give it to others if you don't have it in yourself.
Oprah Winfrey
The roses, the lovely notes, the dining and dancing are all welcome and splendid. But when the Godiva is gone, the gift of real love is having someone who'll go the distance with you. Someone who, when the wedding day limo breaks down, is willing to share a seat on the bus.
Oprah Winfrey
One of the biggest lessons I've learned recently is that when you don't know what to do, you should do nothing until you figure out what to do because a lot of times you feel like you are pressed against the wall, and you've got to make a decision. You never have to do anything. Don't know what to do? Do nothing.
Oprah Winfrey
My idea of heaven is a great big baked potato and someone to share it with.
Oprah Winfrey
Back then, a few doilies and napkins were all that a lot of women had. In the little house where I grew up, the pillowcases my grandmother embroidered were the only things of beauty.
Oprah Winfrey
Meditate. Breathe consciously. Listen. Pay attention. Treasure every moment. Make the connection.
Oprah Winfrey
When you make loving others the story of your life, there's never a final chapter, because the legacy continues. You lend your light to one person, and he or she shines it on another and another and another.
Oprah Winfrey
Honour the difficult.
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
I know this for sure, that doing good actually makes you better.
Oprah Winfrey
Your gut is your inner compass. Whenever you have to consult with other people for an answer, you're headed in the wrong direction.
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
I always knew I was a hit record just waiting to happen.
Oprah Winfrey
The miracle of your existence calls for celebration every day.
Oprah Winfrey
You need to dream a bigger dream for yourself. That is the lesson. Hold the highest vision possible for your life and it can come true.
