Mister Rodgers quotes

From the World According to Mister Rodgers


What we have is less important than what we make out of what we have (38)

There isnt anyone you couldnt love once you hear their story

Often times when you feel you are at the end of something, you are at the beginning of something else

The greatest thing we can do is let people know that they are loved and are capable of loving (52)

Love is not a state of perfect caring. It is an active noun like struggle. To love someone is to strive to accept that person exactly the way that he or she is , right herre and now (53)

The greatest gift that you ever give is your honest self (81)

There is only one thing evil cannot stand and that is forgiveness. (62)

One of the greatest gifts a person can ever have is to feel needed and essential (70)

There is no normal life that is free of pain. It is our very wrestling with our problems that can be the impetus for growth.
