“People are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home, that wilderness is a necessity.”
John Muir

“Academics who've studied Rogers's work often marvel at how young children calm down, pay attention, and learn so much from this television production - and how they remain calm and centered for some time after watching The Neighborhood. Rogers himself put great care into the pacing of the program to help children slow down and steady themselves.”
Maxwell King, The Good Neighbor: The Life and Work of Fred Rogers

“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”
Maxwell King, The Good Neighbor: The Life and Work of Fred Rogers

“One of the challenges of her [Producer Margy Whitmer's] job was to find practical applications for Fred Rogers's sometimes wacky ideas...He couldn't really visualize what he wanted until he saw something, and then he would know that he didn't want that, or he'd want it changed. The hardest part was that he had such respect for the art crew, their talent, their whimsy, and their wackiness, that it was hard for him to tell them he didn't like something.”
Maxwell King, The Good Neighbor: The Life and Work of Fred Rogers

“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.”
Maxwell King, The Good Neighbor: The Life and Work of Fred Rogers
