12 Quotes: Washington, Winfrey
Few things help an individual more than
to place responsibility upon him, and
to let him know that you trust him.
--Booker T. Washington
I don't think of myself as a poor deprived ghetto girl who made good.
I think of myself as somebody who from an early age knew
I was responsible for myself, and I had to make good.
--Oprah Winfrey
