Marionette Theatre in Quanzhou Book

Jim Henson is one of the people I admire most; his philosophy and his lifestyle seem to be in perfect alignment, and the hope and joy he created still shine today. This collection of quotes from him and about him captures many sparks of his genius, and serves as a quick inspiration for any time. I particularly appreciated the foreword and the contributors descriptions, which both provide a fuller glimpse of the man and those he touched. I was a little thrown by the balance of quotes (there's a lot more Fraggle Rock in her than I would have expected), but the inclusion of quotes from his characters as well as himself works (and the music lyrics too; I was impressed by how many of the songs I could hear in my head just from reading the lyrics). This is a good bite-sized selection of inspirational thoughts and quotes from a man who embodies the attributes I most aspire to.
