'Thank you so much and Melissa, thank you, I love you, what wonderful things you said, you forgot gorgeous but that's okay,' Ellen told Melissa McCarthy when she was first called to the stage.

"This is crazy, I mean so, so deserved, but this is crazy. I mean I can't tell you how much this means to me I started my show and I just set out really just to make people happy and make people laugh and to get very, very rich."

"I don't think you have to have a talk show to be nice to people, to do what I'm doing. I just think that kindness is something that we should all have. That's an innate quality that we all have and we need more of that out there.

"I read an amazing quote recently: "What if there was no such thing as love, just proof of love?" I don't know if it was from the Bible or Instagram but it was very powerful to me,' she also said. 'I want everyone to know we all really really love one another and we need to get back to that. We need more of that right now in the world. That is what most of us feel."

DeGeneres did not personally thank wife Portia de Rossi, so fans can expect something in the tabloids about their breakup soon.
