Fred Rogers: [hosting "MisteRogers' Neighborhood"; from trailer] Hello, neighbor.
Andrea Vogel: [from trailer] You okay?

Lloyd Vogel: I'm profiling Mr. Rogers.

Andrea Vogel: Lloyd, please don't ruin my childhood.
[from trailer]

Lloyd Vogel: What's it like to be famous?

Fred Rogers: Fame is a four-letter word. What matters is what we do with it.
Fred Rogers: Does your spouse have a name?
Lloyd Vogel: [to Mr. Rogers; from trailer] This piece will be for an issue about heroes. Do you consider yourself a hero?
Fred Rogers: [from trailer] We are trying to give the world positive ways of dealing with their feelings.

Lloyd Vogel: Yeah, like what?

Fred Rogers: There are many things you can do. You can play all the lowest keys on a piano at the same time.
Lloyd Vogel: [to Mr. Rogers; from trailer] You love broken people, like me.
Fred Rogers: Anything mentionable is manageable.
Fred Rogers: You know, death is something many of us are uncomfortable speaking about.
Fred Rogers: I don't think anybody can grow unless he really is accepted exactly as he is.
Oprah Winfrey: What do you think is the biggest mistakes parents make in raising their children?

Fred Rogers: Not to remember their own childhood. I think that the best thing that we can do is to..think about what it was like for us and know what our children are going through.

Oprah Winfrey: But you know what? It's so hard once you get to be a parent. You always say, I will never do this, when your parents are doing it to you. You say, I will never do this to my child. And then you get to our age and you forget what it was like to be this size.You really do forget.

Fred Rogers: Well, but those children can help re-evoke what it was like. That's why, when you're a parent, you have a new chance to grow.
Fred Rogers: There... There is no normal life that is free from pain.
Fred Rogers: I hope you know that you made today a very special day by just your being you. There's no one in the whole world like you, and I like you just the way you are.
Jerry Vogel: I didn't know you were a vegetarian.

Fred Rogers: I don't eat anything that had a mother.
Fred Rogers: I'd like you to meet a new friend of mine. His name is Lloyd Vogel.

[Fred opens a door in the picture board to reveal a photo of a traumatized Lloyd Vogel]

Fred Rogers: Someone hurt my friend Lloyd, and not just on his face. He is having a hard time forgiving the person who hurt him. Do you, do you know what that means? To forgive? It's a decision we make to release a person from the feelings of anger we have at them. It's strange, but sometimes it's hardest of all to forgive someone we love.
[Lloyd is talking on the phone with Fred Rogers]

Fred Rogers: Do you know what the most important thing in the world is to me right now?

Lloyd Vogel: Uh, no.

Fred Rogers: Talking on the telephone to Lloyd Vogel.
Fred Rogers: [to Lloyd] I don't think you are broken. I know you are a man of conviction, a person who knows the difference between what is wrong and what is right. Try to remember that your relationship with your father also helped to shape those parts. He helped you become what you are.
[Fred is being interviewed by Arsenio Hall]

Arsenio Hall: There's an attitude out there. There's some things going on. A lot of hopelessness. What do we need to do?

Fred Rogers: There's no simple answers, of course. But if we could, through television programs, as well as every other imaginable program, let people know that each one of us is precious.
Lloyd Vogel: Listen, I realize I need to deal with my feelings. When I'm scared, which I was in the hospital, and I have been for a long time, I get really angry. I know it's a way of saying, "I can't deal with this. Get away from me." But that's not what I want. It's actually the opposite of what I want.
Fred Rogers: [reading a list of names during his evening prayers] Cecilia Sherman, Colby Dickerson, Justin Cook, Rebecca Anito, Lloyd Vogel, Andrea Vogel, Gavin Vogel, Jerry Vogel. Thank you, God.
Lloyd Vogel: Hey, what did you say to Jerry?

Fred Rogers: I asked him to pray for me. I figure anyone who is going through what he is going through must be awfully close to God.
Fred Rogers: Someone hurt my friend Lloyd, and not just on his face. He is having a hard time forgiving the person who hurt him. Do you, do you know what that means? To forgive? It's a decision we make to release a person from the feelings of anger we have at them. It's strange, but sometimes it's hardest of all to forgive someone we love.
Fred Rogers: Depression is rage turned inward. Forgive is to release the anger for someone or something.
