"The most pressure to be 'Oprah' is actually in creating this network, The Oprah Winfrey Network," said Oprah Winfrey. " I think the world expects this network to immediately be what The Oprah Winfrey Show has been - and which has taken me 25 years. It has taken me 25 years to create The Oprah Winfrey Show.

"At my heart I'm really a teacher, and that is really the purpose of this TV network," said Oprah Winfrey. "It is to use it as a tool for teaching and inspiring and giving people back to themselves so that people can see the best of themselves."
