My father was so good-natured and had such a happy disposition. Ive always confused him with Jimmy Stewart. So, think Jimmy Stewart. Thats my dad. – Jane Pauley
I think my children know that Mothers priority is to be with them first. But I dont think it has to be an either/or situation. Work is very important to me, and it wouldnt be in the best interest of my children for me to stay home seven days a week. – Jane Pauley
I think the success of a talk show depends on how true it is to the personality of the person hosting it. The shows I really admire, like Oprah and Ellen, are distinctively like their hosts, so I think my show will be successful only if we try to stay consistent to my own sense of myself. – Jane Pauley
I came back to work when my children were two months old. At that early age, they seem to have little awareness of anybody but their Raggedy Ann dolls, so it wasnt a matter of them missing me. I was missing them. – Jane Pauley
