Take what you got and fly with it.
Jim Henson
[Kids] don't remember what you try to teach them. They remember what you are.
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
Do the jobs you like least first. It makes each successive job easier.
Jim Henson
(Lisa Henson about her father) He admired the job of the man who walks along the road picking up trash with a long stick. He thought that guy had a great job, walking along with a stick, enjoying the road, and doing only good in the world, with hundreds of small actions.
Jim Henson
Please watch out for each other and love and forgive everybody. It's a good life, enjoy it.
Jim Henson
I've never felt any sense of competition with anybody, and we're all friends. We're all good friends.
Jim Henson
No, there's not much competition between puppeteers in general because everybody's working their own style.

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

Television is basically teaching whether you want it to or not.
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
If our 'message' is anything, it's a positive approach to life. That life is basically good. People are basically good.
Jim Henson
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
I believe that life is basically a process of growth-that we go through many lives, choosing those situations and problems that we will learn through.
Jim Henson
Life is meant to be fun, and joyous, and fulfilling.
Jim Henson
If anything, there's a difference in working with color in England and the color in the US.
Jim Henson
I think if you study--if you learn too much of what others have done, you may tend to take the same direction as everybody else.
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.
Jim Henson
Music is an essential part of everything we do. Like puppetry, music has an abstract quality which speaks to a worldwide audience in a wonderful way that nourishes the soul.
