Jim Henson
Somebody like a Piggy or a Kermit, there needs to be several versions and so there will be several of them.

I don't know exactly where ideas come from, but when I'm working well ideas just appear. I've heard other people say similar things - so it's one of the ways I know there's help and guidance out there. It's just a matter of our figuring out how to receive the ideas or information that are waiting to be heard.
Jim Henson
My hope still is to leave the world a bit better than when I got here.

Jim Henson
Watch out for each other. Love everyone and forgive everyone, including yourself. Forgive your anger. Forgive your guilt. Your shame. Your sadness. Embrace and open up your love, your joy, your truth, and most especially your heart.
Jim Henson
Take what you got and fly with it.

Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered I have fought my way here to the castle beyond the Goblin City to take back the child you have stolen, for my will is as strong as yours and my kingdom as great. You have no power over me!
Jim Henson
There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met.
Jim Henson
Do everything at 100 percent of its potential and never accept second best.
Jim Henson
If you care about what you do and work hard at it, there isn't anything you can't do if you want to.
Jim Henson
Life is meant to be fun, and joyous, and fulfilling.
Jim Henson
I decided that what I really wanted to do was go off and paint.
Jim Henson
NBC was trying to convert all of their local programming to color right away to encourage the sale of the sets, so I barely remember working in black and white, although I do know that I did do it, but there was not a major difference, though.
Jim Henson
Who said that every wish would be heard and answered when wished on an evening star? Somebody thought of it and someone believed it, and look what its done so far.
Jim Henson
There was a little afternoon show that was called Afternoon. Back in those days in television, most local stations had a midday show for housewives that had a series of things. It was like a variety show for midday.
