Jim Henson
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
I hope that something better comes along.
Jim Henson
Somebody like a Piggy or a Kermit, there needs to be several versions and so there will be several of them.
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
