This may sound funny, but as much as the Today show matured me, it

This may sound funny, but as much as the Today show matured me, it also was something of a cocoon. Id been happy there. I never went into the bosss office and pounded my fist on the desk, saying, Give me more money! Give me a prime-time show! – Jane Pauley

In the beginning when I sat next to Tom Brokaw on the Today show, the stories I was interested in were those having to do with women and children and learning and health. In those days, 25 to 30 years ago, that was called soft news, and not in a nice way. – Jane Pauley

I envy people with dreams and passions, but I dont think that way. I still dont have a bliss to follow. For people like me – I suspect thats most people – holding out for a dream or a passion is paralyzing. I just like having work I enjoy that feels meaningful. Thats hard enough… but its enough. – 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
