Those of us who grew up with Mister Rogers will never forget him. He never talked down to us. He instead chose to speak to us as equals.

"Sometimes, though, I wonder if we confuse strength with other words - like aggression, and even violence."
I wonder what Mister Rogers would have made of politicians defining "strength" as "support for war."
