“Mister Rogers took his viewers on this little journey to show that even in the face of death, things move ahead. That's the essential message as he sits by the fish grave. Rogers never told grieving children that everything will be all right: no such simplistic reassurances. Instead he shared his feelings about death and loss, and the extraordinary truth, reaffirmed repeatedly throughout the program, that life does go on.”

“In a later interview, [Junod] noted of longtime cast members: 'In their way, they were strangely kind of vulnerable folks, too. I mean, they...settled in and had their artistic and creative home there....There was an acceptance of limitation there. It wasn't like they were out there fulfilling their own wild ambitions...It was not that at all. It was like they were there because they had found a home there.”

“I think that finding ways of showing our feelings - ways that don't hurt ourselves or anybody else - is one of the most important things we can learn to do.' - Fred Rogers”
