More quotes by Fred Rogers
When we leave our child in nursery school for the first time, it won't be just our child's feelings about separation that we will have to cope with, but our own feelings as well-from our present and from our past, parents are extra vulnerable to new tremors from old earthquakes.
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
We all have different gifts, so we all have different ways of saying to the world who we are.
Fred Rogers
Children who have learned to be comfortably dependent can become not only comfortably independent but also comfortable with having people depend on them. They can lean, stand, and be leaned upon, because they know what a good feeling it can be to feel needed.
Fred Rogers
I don't believe that children can develop in a healthy way unless they feel that they have value apart from anything they own or any skill that they learn. They need to feel they enhance the life of someone else, that they are needed. Who, better than parents, can let them know that?
Fred Rogers
Anyone who does anything to help a child in his life is a hero to me.
Fred Rogers
Peace means far more than the opposite of war.
Fred Rogers
I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers - so many caring people in this world.
Fred Rogers
Very early in our children's lives we will be forced to realize that the perfect untroubled life we'd like for them is just a fantasy. In daily living, tears and fights and doing things we don't want to do are all part of our human ways of developing into adults.
Fred Rogers
You know, you don't have to look like everybody else to be acceptable and to feel acceptable.
Fred Rogers
Perhaps we think that we won't find another human being inside that person. Perhaps we think that there are some people in this world who I can't ever communicate with, and so I'll just give up before I try. And how sad it is to think that we would give up on any other creature who's just like us.
Fred Rogers
Feelings about money -- saving and spending, holding back and letting go -- start very early in our lives. Stingy people have often been forced to give when they were very, very young, when they weren't ready. And generous people have often been really appreciated when they were very young.
Fred Rogers
Hopefully your choices can come from a deep sense of who you are.
Fred Rogers
When our children see us expressing our emotions, they can learn that their own feelings are natural and permissible, can be expressed, and can be talked about. That's an important thing for our children to learn.
Fred Rogers
One of the greatest dignities of humankind is that each successive generation is invested in the welfare of each new generation.
Fred Rogers
When we're able to resign ourselves to the wishes that will never come true, there can be enormous energies available within us for whatever we CAN do.
Fred Rogers
There are three ways to ultimate success: The first way is to be kind. The second way is to be kind. The third way is to be kind.
Fred Rogers
It's a miracle when we finally discover whom we're best equipped to serve.
Fred Rogers
It always helps to have people we love beside us when we have to do difficult things in life.
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
