More quotes by Katie Couric
Sometimes I think change is a good thing.
Katie Couric
What brought me into the TV business is what keeps me here and happy. You can learn something new every day if you have a really positive attitude.
Katie Couric
Obviously, people in Texas have big hearts.
Katie Couric
I think it's dangerous if your goal in life is to get the other guy, then you're not going to be doing a really quality job yourself
Katie Couric
I hope I have a little talent, but a lot of it was luck. I went through setbacks. People said I looked too young, people said I wasn't good, nobody said, 'Come here, baby, we're going to make you a star.' Early on, when I'd say, 'Can I do some anchoring?' people would look at me like I was crazy.
Katie Couric
All three networks have always had a morning show but now cable of course is taking some of that audience away and a variety of other things, probably the Internet as well.
Katie Couric
It's these parallel universes when someone you love is sick. Your world is this completely foreign place involving radiation and tumor markers. Outside, people are buying sweaters.
Katie Couric
I know there's a great deal of speculation, and while I appreciate the interest, kind of, my contract ends in May and I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do. I'm fortunate to have a couple of opportunities to think long and hard about.
Katie Couric
To think that one child would go to bed hungry somewhere in this country is heartbreaking... to know how many do is virtually incomprehensible. This is not only a problem that exists in the far reaches of the globe. It happens right here in our own backyard. Together, as concerned citizens, we must do more to make sure every child's needs are met.
Katie Couric
Some suggested over the weekend that it is wrong to expect Elian Gonzalez to live in a place that tolerates no dissent or freedom of political expression. They were talking about Miami.
Katie Couric
The person I enjoyed interviewing the most was Elmo from Sesame Street because he is so unpredictable and he is always eating my hair and my face.
Katie Couric
A less-than dream job can help you find your dreams.
Katie Couric
Be fearless. Have the courage to take risks. Go where there are no guarantees.
Katie Couric
I don't always have a lot of energy, but my kids almost always revitalize me.
Katie Couric
Misperceiving that there is one correct choice is a common mistake. Coming to understand that there are usually a few good choices--and then there's the one you pick, commit to, and make great--is the best way to make flexible, optimal, good decisions in life.
Katie Couric
The media can be an instrument of change. It can maintain the status quo and reflect the views of the society or it can, hopefully, awaken people and change minds. I think it depends on who’s piloting the plane.
Katie Couric
I've always tried to stay true to my authentic self.
Katie Couric
My daughters depend on me for a lot more than food, clothing and shelter. They depend on me as an example of how to go on.
Katie Couric
Changing the world doesn't happen all at once. It isn't a big bang. It's an evolution, the sum of a billion tiny sparks. And some of those sparks will have to come from you.
Katie Couric
The whole culture of wearing flags on our lapel and saying 'we' when referring to the United States and, even the 'shock and awe' of the initial stages, it was just too jubilant and just a little uncomfortable.
