If you could only sense how important you are to the lives of those you meet how important you can be to the people you may never even dream of. There is something of yourself that you leave at every meeting with another person.

More quotes by Fred Rogers
It is our continuing love for our children that makes us want them to become all they can be, and their continuing love for us that helps them accept healthy discipline--from us and eventually from themselves.
Fred Rogers
I think it's very important - no matter what you may do professionally - to keep alive some of the healthy interests of your youth. Children's play is not just kids' stuff. Children's play is rather the stuff of most future inventions.
Fred Rogers
If the grain of wheat could know fear, it would be paralyzed with anxiety at the thought of being dropped in the ground, covered over, put out of sight, doomed to inactivity, yet what a glorious harvest awaits it!
Fred Rogers
I don't want to eat anything that has a mother
Fred Rogers
A love of learning has a lot to do with learning that we are loved.
Fred Rogers
When I was a boy I used to think that STRONG meant having big muscles, great physical power but the longer I live, the more I realize that real strength has much more to do with what is NOT seen. Real strength has to do with helping others.
Fred Rogers
The thing I remember best about successful people I've met all through the years is their obvious delight in what they're doing and it seems to have very little to do with worldly success. They just love what they're doing, and they love it in front of others.
Fred Rogers
[I]f we can bring our children understanding, comfort, and hopefulness when they need this kind of support, then they are more likely to grow into adults who can find these resources within themselves later on. (from the introduction)
Fred Rogers
Little by little we human beings are confronted with situations that give us more and more clues that we are not perfect.
Fred Rogers
Our world hangs like a magnificent jewel in the vastness of space. Every one of us is a part of that jewel. A facet of that jewel. And in the perspective of infinity, our differences are infinitesimal.
Fred Rogers
Feeling good about ourselves is essential in our being able to love others.
Fred Rogers
I hope you're proud of yourself for the times you've said yes, when all it meant was extra work for you and was seemingly helpful only to someone else.
Fred Rogers
Who you are inside is what helps you make and do everything in life.
Fred Rogers
Anything mentionable is manageable.
Fred Rogers
All I know to do is to light the candle that has been given to me.
Fred Rogers
All life events are formative. All contribute to what we become, year by year, as we go on growing. As my friend the poet Kenneth Koch once said, You aren't just the age you are. You are all the ages you ever have been!
Fred Rogers
Solitude is different from loneliness, and it doesn't have to be a lonely kind of thing.
Fred Rogers
The child is in me still and sometimes not so still.
Fred Rogers
The world is not always a kind place. That's something all children learn for themselves, whether we want them to or not, but it's something they really need our help to understand.
Fred Rogers
In the external scheme of things, shining moments are as brief as the twinkling of an eye, yet such twinklings are what eternity is made of -- moments when we human beings can say I love you, I'm proud of you, I forgive you, I'm grateful for you. That's what eternity is made of: invisible imperishable good stuff.
Fred Rogers
