Oprah Winfrey

You're not going to find it out there.

It only comes in the stillness of your own being, and you can only get it by being quiet enough to discover it for yourself.

And that's what I wish for people.

I wish for everybody to have this kind of peace that I have, this kind of contentment, because not only what people like to talk about is the external wealth.

Well, the external wealth is not even a match

for the internal wealth that I feel from the appreciation and the gratitude of the life I've been able to lead.

And a constant awareness of that.

I'm never not aware of it.

I'm never not aware.

There's not a morning that I wake up that I'm not aware of the road from Mississippi to Montecito.

Not a morning.

Not a morning.

Not a day.

And every time I enter...

you know, the front lawn, I come through the gate to my house, I literally have a mantra that I say, Jesus loves me every time I pass the fountain, because how did this happen?

Because Jesus loves me.

This I know.

So growing up, there's this song called Jesus loves me.

This I know, you know, the Bible tells me so.

So I know this to be true.
