Quote by Jane Pauley

“I envy people with dreams and passions, but I don't think that way. I still don't have a 'bliss' to follow. For people like me - I suspect that's most people - holding out for a 'dream' or a 'passion' is paralyzing. I just like having work I enjoy that feels meaningful. That's hard enough... but it's enough.”

“When I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder the year I turned 50, it was certainly a shock.
