Oprah once said, "Every day brings a chance for you to draw in a breath, kick off your shoes, and dance" (Winfrey, 2003).

This quote all comes down to her life, since at the beginning of her life, she had all the negative thoughts and feelings towards herself, but later on, when she was under her father 's custody, she got her life back together again and eventually became a successful celebrity.

This quote relates to her philosophies of life, by showing people, once you get your life under control, anything is possible in life. Poverty and sexual abuse could have taken Oprah to the dark sides of life,
