Danh ngôn của Oprah Winfrey (Sứ mệnh: 5)

Turn your wounds into wisdom.
Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.
Doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.
Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another steppingstone to greatness.
My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you I the best place for the next moment.
Excellence is the best deterrent to racism or sexism.
I don't believe in failure. It is not failure if you enjoyed the process.
When I look into the future, it's so bright it burns my eyes.
I was raised to believe that excellence is the best deterrent to racism or sexism. And that's how I operate my life.
The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.
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.
Books were my pass to personal freedom. I learned to read at age three, and soon discovered there was a whole world to conquer that went beyond our farm in Mississippi.
I don't think of myself as a poor deprived ghetto girl who made good. I think of myself as somebody who from an early age knew I was responsible for myself, and I had to make good.
Where there is no struggle, there is no strength.
I believe that every single event in life happens in an opportunity to choose love over fear.
Unless you choose to do great things with it, it makes no difference how much you are rewarded, or how much power you have.
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.
What material success does is provide you with the ability to concentrate on other things that really matter. And that is being able to make a difference, not only in your own life, but in other people's lives.
You know you are on the road to success if you would do your job, and not be paid for it.
Follow your instincts. That's where true wisdom manifests itself.
What God intended for you goes far beyond anything you can imagine.
The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams.
Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.
I have a lot of things to prove to myself. One is that I can live my life fearlessly.
The greatest discovery of all time is that a person can change his future by merely changing his attitude.
As you become more clear about who you really are, you'll be better able to decide what is best for you - the first time around.
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.
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.
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.
Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.
Acting is about going into the space, and there are just some places that I'm not willing to go.
I know that inner wisdom is more precious than wealth. The more you spend it, the more you gain.
Whatever has happened to you in your past has no power over this present moment, because life is now.
If you want to feel good, you have to go out and do some good.
Every day, you're only as good as your last show.
Your job is not just to do what your parents say, what your teachers say, what society says, but to figure out what your heart calling is and to be led by that.
You alone are enough.
Money is worth nothing if it can't buy you the opportunity to love more.
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.
Every stumble is not a fall, and every fall does not mean failure.
Being human means you will make mistakes. And you will make mistakes, because failure is God's way of moving you in another direction.
With age comes the understanding and appreciation of your most important asset, your health.
