More quotes by Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey
So go ahead. Fall down. The world looks different from the ground.
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
My first deepening of spirituality came when I was 6, when I was moved from my grandmother and sent to live with my mother - whom I really did not know - who had moved to Milwaukee.

Oprah Winfrey
That guy just cut right in front of me. But I'm not going to let it bother me. No. I'm on my way to work and I decided it doesn't matter who wants to cut in front of my lane today. I'm not going to let it bother me one bit. Once I get to work, find myself a parking space, if somebody wants to jump ahead of me and take it, I'm going to let them.
Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey
When I woke up in the morning and look in the mirror I realise that one of the reasons I don't own a handgun is, I would have shot my thighs off years ago.
Oprah Winfrey
I had no idea that being your authentic self could make me as rich as I've become. If I had, I'd have done it a lot earlier.
Oprah Winfrey
I finally realized that being grateful to my body was key to giving more love to myself.
Oprah Winfrey
You only have power in your energy field ... so the only way to live the life you want is in your energy field ... and your greatest power is love.
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
It is very true, that the way you think creates reality for yourself.
Oprah Winfrey
Back in the day when I started - it's like I walked five miles to school in the snow barefooted - there were three channels.I don't know what I would do.
Oprah Winfrey
The only thing that can free you is the belief that you can be free.
Oprah Winfrey
If I had kids, my kids would hate me. They would have ended up on the equivalent of the Oprah show talking about me because something [in my life] would have had to suffer and it would've probably been them.
Oprah Winfrey
There is a seeded bread that I bring from South Africa. I bring home 10, 20 loaves. I am so bad with this bread. I've literally been in hotels and brought my own: Please, can you toast this? I have my own bread. They're like, You have your own bread? And I'll pull it out!
Oprah Winfrey
