Oprah Winfrey Quotes
I've learned to rely on the strength I inherited from all those who came before me-the grandmothers, sisters, aunts, and brothers who were tested with unimaginable hardships and still survived.

When I move through the world, I bring all my history with me-all the people who paved the way for me are part of who I am.
