Feelings about money -- saving and spending, holding back and letting go -- start very early in our lives. stingy people have often been forced to give when they were very, very young, when they weren't ready. and generous people have often been really appreciated when they were very young.

More From Fred Rogers

To walk in money through the night crowd, protected by money, lulled by money, dulled by money, the crowd itself a money, the breath money, no least single object anywhere that is not money. money, money everywhere and still not enough! and then no money, or a little money, or less money, or more money but money always money. and if you have money, or you don't have money, it is the money that counts, and money makes money, but what makes money make money?
Money Night Crowds
I wonder why anyone would hesitate to be generous with their writing. i mean, if you really want to make a living, go to wall street and trade oil futures ... we're writers. we're doing something that is inherently a generous act. we're exposing ourselves to the muse and to the things that frighten us. why do that if you're not willing to be generous? and paradoxically, almost ironically, it turns out that the more generous you are, the more money you make. but that's secondary. for me, the privilege of being generous is why i get to do this.
Wall Writing Mean
The notion of saving the planet has nothing to do with intellectual honesty or science. the fact is that the planet was here long before us and will be here long after us. the planet is running fine. what people are talking about is saving themselves and saving their middle-class lifestyles and saving their cash flow.

For after all, what is there behind, except money? money for the right kind of education, money for influential friends, money for leisure and peace of mind, money for trips to italy. money writes books, money sells them. give me not righteousness, o lord, give me money, only money.

I start songs all the time. if i weren't so lazy, i would finish them. it's like when i have a deadline i have to. i always feel very lucky that i am forced to make records at certain times. if i was forced to make 2 records a year, i would write twice as many songs. i can't make myself finish something unless i am forced
Song Writing Years
My feelings are not god. god is god. my feelings do not define truth. god’s word defines truth. my feelings are echoes and responses to what my mind perceives. and sometimes - many times - my feelings are out of sync with the truth. when that happens - and it happens every day in some measure - i try not to bend the truth to justify my imperfect feelings, but rather, i plead with god: purify my perceptions of your truth and transform my feelings so that they are in sync with the truth.

Humour is but the faint terrestrial echo of the hideous laughter of the blind mad gods that squat leeringly and sardonically in caverns beyond the milky way. it is a hollow thing, sweet on the outside, but filled with the pathos of fruitless aspiration.

You can publish a poem you think is a very important poem, and you don't hear a word from anyone. [...] you can publish a book of poetry by dropping it off a cliff and waiting to hear an echo. quite often, you'll never hear a thing. so doing that, using older work, puts it in a context, and that sort of forces the reader to realize what its importance is-if it has any. everything needs a context. you're not going to recognize a poet unless you have a context.

Jazz is the music of the body. the breath comes through brass. it is the body's breath, and the strings' wails and moans are echoes of the body's music. it is the body's vibrations which ripple from the fingers. and the mystery of the withheld theme, known to jazz musicians alone, is like the mystery of our secret life. we give to others only peripheral improvisations.
