— Fred Rogers, Life's Journeys According to Mister Rogers: Things to Remember Along the Way."I believe that at the center of the universe there dwells a loving spirit who longs for all that’s best in all of creation, a spirit who knows the great potential of each planet as well as each person, and little by little will love us into being more than we ever dreamed possible. That loving spirit would rather die than give up on any one of us."

- Fred Rogers"I don't think anyone can grow unless he's loved exactly as he is now, appreciated for what he is rather than what he will be."

- Fred Rogers"When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping."
