More quotes by Jim Henson
Television is basically teaching whether you want it to or not.
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
The attitude you have as a parent is what your kids will learn from more than what you tell them. They don't remember what you try to teach them. They remember what you are.
Jim Henson
If our 'message' is anything, it's a positive approach to life. That life is basically good. People are basically good.

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
A film is not done by one person. It's done by a lot of people. I love this whole collaborative aspect. When it works well, you end up with something better than any of us started out to do.
Jim Henson
Life is meant to be fun, and joyous, and fulfilling.
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
Yeah, I did some small parts in high school and the first year of college and then fairly soon thereafter I settled into the backstage scenery, and then at the University of Maryland I was doing posters for their productions.
Jim Henson
Only time can heal your broken heart. Just as only time can heal his broken arms and legs.
Jim Henson
Take what you got and fly with it.
Jim Henson
I hope that something better comes along.
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
I decided that what I really wanted to do was go off and paint.
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.
