Oprah Winfrey

(1954–) · American Media Personality

American talk show host, television producer, actress, author, and media proprietor.

The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams.
What I know is, is that if you do work that you love, and the work fulfills you, the rest will come.
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.
The thing you fear most has no power. Your fear of it is what has the power. Facing the truth really will set you free.
My whole reason for creating a network is literally to bring little pieces of light. It's to continue to spread little pieces of light in the world, to illuminate the possibility of the human spirit.
If you're constantly pushing yourself higher, higher, the law of averages - not to mention the myth of Icarus - predicts that you will at some point fall. And when you do, I want you to know this, remember this: There is no such thing as failure.
I am a woman in process. I'm just trying like everybody else. I try to take every conflict, every experience, and learn from it. Life is never dull.
I know that inner wisdom is more precious than wealth. The more you spend it, the more you gain.
I try to basically keep my opinions to myself when it comes to people who are charged with crimes that I don't know anything about.
I believe that every single event in life happens in an opportunity to choose love over fear.
