Oprah calls it "One of the most powerful lessons any of us can ever know, when you know better you do better". It was Oprah's great mentor, Maya Angelou, which imparted that gem to her. Oprah lives by the words of Maya Angelou, sitting, listening and learning at Miss Angelou's feet, literally. Oprah has felt deeply connected to Maya Angelou even before she met her in an interview. When Oprah first read, I Know Why the Cage Bird Sings, in her childhood she was hooked on the writer. Years later, Oprah interviewed Maya Angelou and they became friends shortly thereafter. They have known each other for more than 20 years and Oprah still seeks sage advice from the scribe de vie.
