Rogers

Famous quotes containing the word rogers:

    Most childhood problems don’t result from “bad” parenting, but are the inevitable result of the growing that parents and children do together. The point isn’t to head off these problems or find ways around them, but rather to work through them together and in doing so to develop a relationship of mutual trust to rely on when the next problem comes along.
    —Fred Rogers (20th century)

    Mine be a cot beside the hill;
    A bee-hive’s hum shall soothe my ear;
    A willowy brook, that turns a mill,
    With many a fall shall linger near.
    —Samuel Rogers (1763–1855)

    There is a universal truth that I have found in my work. Everybody longs to be loved. And the greatest thing we can do is let somebody know that they are loved and capable of loving.
    —Fred Rogers (20th century)
