Diane Sawyer

“I think the one lesson I have learned is that there is no substitute for paying attention.”

“The only rule is don't be boring and dress cute wherever you go. Life is too short to blend in.”

“What you want to do, and what you can do, is often a matter of perception.”

“Follow your passion. It will lead you to your purpose.”

“A flaw is really a virtue in disguise.”

“Curiosity is the engine of achievement.”

“Go for the moon. If you don't get it, you'll still be heading for a star.”

“The only thing that will make you happy is being happy with who you are, and not who people think you are.”

“Whatever you want in life, other people are going to want it too. Believe in yourself enough to accept the idea that you have an equal right to it.”

“I have learned that you can't have everything and do everything at the same time.”

“If you've got a dream, you can't just sit there. You've got to gather the courage to believe that you can succeed and leave no stone unturned to make it a reality.”

“It's the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.”

“Sure, I have advice for people starting out. If you're a reporter, you should have a sense of outrage.”
