20 Gentle Quotations from Mister Rogers

In times of tragedy, we look to teachers for guidance and hope. I can think of no better teacher than Fred McFeely Rogers for his gentle wisdom on children, humility, grief, and the specialness of every person.

On Solitude 
“Solitude is different from loneliness, and it doesn’t have to be a lonely kind of thing.”

On Helping
“I hope you’re proud of yourself for the times you’ve said ‘yes,’ when all it meant was extra work for you and was seemingly helpful only to somebody else.”

On Looking for the Helpers 
“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.’ To this day, especially in times of ‘disaster,’ I remember my mother’s words, and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers–so many caring people in this world.”
