Jim Henson
I guess I was wrong when I said I never promised anyone. I promised me.
Jim Henson
I decided that what I really wanted to do was go off and paint.
Jim Henson
I don't want'a die... I have other plans!
Jim Henson
If you take a character and you call him a frog, or like Rowlf, our dog, call him a dog, you immediately give the audience a handle.
