You bring all you ever were and are to any relationship you have today.
Fred Rogers

As different as we are from one another, as unique as each one of us is, we are much more the same than we are different. That may be the most essential message of all, as we help our children grow toward being caring, compassionate, and charitable adults.
Fred Rogers

As human beings, our job in life is to help people realize how rare and valuable each one of us really is, that each of us has something that no one else has-or ever will have-something inside that is unique to all time.

Imagine what our real neighborhoods would be like if each of us offered . . . just one kind word to another person.
