More quotes by Fred Rogers
The purpose of life is to listen - to yourself, to your neighbor, to your world and to God and, when the time comes, to respond in as helpful a way as you can find ... from within and without.
Fred Rogers
You bring all you ever were and are to any relationship you have today.
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
Listening is a very active awareness of the coming together of at least two lives. Listening, as far as I'm concerned, is certainly a prerequisite of love. One of the most essential ways of saying 'I love you' is being a receptive listener.
Fred Rogers
Some days, doing the best we can may still fall short of what we would like to be able to do, but life isn't perfect on any front-and doing what we can with what we have is the most we should expect of ourselves or anyone else.
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
You know, you don't have to look like everybody else to be acceptable and to feel acceptable.
Fred Rogers
Love isn't a state of perfect caring, it is an active noun like struggle.
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
Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.
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
Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone.
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
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.
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
My friendship with Mitzi was like the friendship that many children have with their pets. My mother and father thought it was good for me to have a dog for a companion. Well it was good for me, but it was only many years after she died that I began to understand how good it was, and why.
Fred Rogers
I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers - so many caring people in this world.
Fred Rogers
Feeling good about ourselves is essential in our being able to love others.
Fred Rogers
Whether we're a preschooler or a young teen, a graduating college senior or a retired person, we human beings all want to know that we're acceptable, that our being alive somehow makes a difference in the lives of others.
Fred Rogers
Sometimes people are good, and they do just what they should. But the very same people who are good sometimes are the very same people who are bad sometimes. It's funny but it's true. Its the same isn't it, for me and . . .
Fred Rogers
