Here are a few highlights:
- “The secret I’ve learned to getting ahead is being open to the lessons.”
- “Money is pretty nice. I like money. It’s good for buying things. But having a lot of money does not automatically make one a successful person. What you want is money and meaning - you want your work to be meaningful, because meaning is what brings the real richness to your life.”
- “Every wrong decision was the result of me not listening to my voice. If it doesn’t feel right, don’t do it.”
- One student said the speech was “extremely inspirational.”

yeah right a speech from her?? She is such a phony and a fake!
Only makes sense…those Stanford kids are already so loaded that they dont need to hear shit form the likes of the big O.
She is just a __________________.
Cant stand her
Anonymous nailed it: Filthy rich people are always inspiring to other wealthy folks.
Self righteous B——-itch. You have lost all credibility a lonnnnnng time ago with me, people are finally starting to see you for who you are.
More Brainwashing as is the left wing academia wasn’t enough
“Socialism for you , socialism for you and socialism for you but not for me “!!!!!!
I think she is an inspirational woman, and she’s a great speaker.
I think Gayle’s daughter may have graduated this year from Stanford…and that’s why she was asked (and agreed) to speak. Anyone know for sure? Care?
nope. we sure do not
Oprah cops a lot of criticism, especially lately there seems to be a bit of backlash. I think she’s a very good person though, even if she does come across a little fake sometimes. She never speaks down to her audience and always gives the impression that she wants to learn as well and wants to share her learning with her audience and her guests. Whether it’s fake or not, it’s worked for her for years. Anybody that can give as much money as she does to charity and raises awareness for so many causes, gets a thumbs up from me.

same.
she does get a lot of bad press i dont knw why she has worked hard to get to where she is today she is a women who i think is inspirational not only for black women but for all women no matter what colour they are leave her alone she only tries to do good. oprah has to live her life just as we all have to live ours how hard must it be to be constantly attacked by people about the what she is or isnt doing i know i wouldnt like to live my life in the public eye having every issue weather good or bad being watched and commented on that must be annoying i dont knw many people who would have the strength to carry on after so many years of being in the public eye. all those who put her down should maybe look a bit deeper within themselves and ask themselves how they would like that constant pressure, which she handles very well
