Wise words,
By Laurie Michaels (Tustin, MI United States)
I have long admired Oprah for much of what she does. I like that Mr. Palmieri has collected such a great collection of quotes and created such powerful affirmations from them. The space to create my own affirmations, inquiries and actions was inspiring as well. I love books that invite me to be part of them.
The book is divided into many sections so if you need a certain type of affirmation, chances are you'll find it here. I plan to share it with a number of friends who might appreciate the wisdom found within.

By L. Webster (Arizona)
Whether you agree with Ms. Winfrey's politics or not; no one can deny that she has become the most influential person dealing with social issues. Luckily, most of the time, she steers away from any agenda and just graces us with her "down-home" and "folksy" good sense. She has imparted tons of great information over the years and many of her best quotes are gathered here. Each great quote is followed by a suggested affirmation, a question to ask yourself and an action to perform. There are even pages to journal your journey. By the end of the book you will not only know more about Oprah, but yourself as well.
Perfect for an Oprah fan
I know exactly who would like this book and she's my best friend. As an avid Oprah fan she'd enjoy the quotations from one of her favorite TV icons. She'd also really enjoy using the writing and action prompts as jumping off points for further understanding of herself. I imagine that anyone who enjoys a bit of introspection would find somethings to enjoy about this book. I think this would be an excellent gift for most Oprah fans but also lends itself to any person wanting to do a bit of self improvement.

Reviews for "Oprah In Her Words Our American Princess"
I have to admit, at first glance I thought it was a book by Oprah. Very clever. I wanted to know more about this person who captured Oprah's words, so I went to your site to see that you have no only done this with Oprah but with Obama and a few others.
Have you sent Oprah a copy? Look forward to reading more.
I agree so strongly with the Golden rule you mentioned on your page.

Thank you for the welcoming words when I first joined, I hope we can find friendship and I look forward to reading your work!! Take care and have a Blessed day!
