Oprah Winfrey

“I remember a specific moment, watching my grandmother hang the clothes on the line, and her saying to me, 'you are going to have to learn to do this,' and me being in that space of awareness and knowing that my life would not be the same as my grandmother's life.”

“What I know is, is that if you do work that you love, and the work fulfills you, the rest will come.”

“Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.”

“Where there is no struggle, there is no strength.”

“You know you are on the road to success if you would do your job, and not be paid for it.”

“Be thankful for what you have you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.”

“Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire. This is your moment. Own it.”

“It's much easier for me to make major life, multi-million dollar decisions, than it is to decide on a carpet for my front porch. That's the truth.”

“Turn your wounds into wisdom.”

“Follow your instincts. That's where true wisdom manifests itself.”
