More quotes by 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
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
I don't think anyone can grow unless he's loved exactly as he is now, appreciated for what he is rather than what he will be.
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
Fame is a four-letter word and like tape or zoom or face or pain or life or love, what ultimately matters is what we do with it.
Fred Rogers
If it's mentionable, it's manageable.
Fred Rogers
Often out of periods of losing come the greatest strivings toward a new winning streak.
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
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
One of the greatest dignities of humankind is that each successive generation is invested in the welfare of each new generation.
Fred Rogers
Who we are in the present includes who we were in the past.
Fred Rogers
Hopefully your choices can come from a deep sense of who you are.
Fred Rogers
Imagine what our real neighborhoods would be like if each of us offered . . . just one kind word to another person.
Fred Rogers
The older I get, the more convinced I am that the space between people who are trying their best to understand each other is hallowed ground.
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
Love and trust, in the space between what’s said and what’s heard in our life, can make all the difference in the world.
Fred Rogers
Solitude is different from loneliness, and it doesn't have to be a lonely kind of thing.
Fred Rogers
All of us have special ones who have loved us into being
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
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.
