Oprah addressed the rest of us peasants via video: “I wish you all could’ve been here to celebrate Wisdom Sundays,” she said, “but because you couldn’t be here, I’m offering you the book.”

And if you’re wondering why the billionaire needs book sales, Oprah added that “All proceeds go to my charity. I’m not taking a cent because I want the blessings of the book and words to help other people in the world.”
