“That anger can be expressed through words and non-destructive activities; that promises are intended to be kept; that cleanliness and good eating habits are aspects of self-esteem; that compassion is an attribute to be prized—all these lessons are ones children can learn far more readily through the living example of their parents than they ever can through formal instruction.”
—Fred Rogers (20th century)
“To sum up:
1. The cosmos is a gigantic fly-wheel making 10,000 revolutions a minute.

—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
