About this Quote

This quote by Oprah Winfrey speaks with the concept that product benefits and power are not the most important things in life. Rather, it is what we choose to do with these rewards and power that matters. It is inadequate to just have them; we must use them to do terrific things. This could indicate using our rewards to help others, or using our power to make a positive distinction worldwide. Eventually, it is up to us to decide how we utilize our resources and what kind of effect we make. Without acting, our rewards and power are useless.
