Jim Henson
Do the jobs you like least first. It makes each successive job easier.

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
I've never felt any sense of competition with anybody, and we're all friends. We're all good friends.
Jim Henson
If our 'message' is anything, it's a positive approach to life. That life is basically good. People are basically good.
