"Our society is much more interested in information than wonder, in noise rather than silence...And I feel that we need a lot more wonder and a lot more silence in our lives."
Mr. (Fred) Rogers
It makes me kind of sad, that I did not have the opportunity to get to know Mr. Rogers when I was a child. God knows this shy little geek could have used some of his wisdom, kindness and gentleness really bad.
Id did not learn of him before I watched the Tom Hanks movie in 2020. He just wasn't present here in Europe. What a pity.
If ever someone impersonated greatness by simply being caring and kind, than it was him. So much of what he did and said is so perfectly quotable and a fantastic example on what it means to be human.
I don't know when a 9 minute long compilation of interviews/apprearance of anyone made me sob so many times... sigh. (affectionate)

The three secrets to happiness are:
Be kind.
Be kind.
Be kind.
