I'm sure Kermit will stay young a lot longer than I will. - Jim Henson

In actuality, Muppets was a word we just coined. It was merely to be the name of our act. ... I used to say to people that it was a combination of 'marionettes' and 'puppets.' ... But then I stopped telling this lie, and I'm back to the truth: It just came out of midair.

Yes, its one of the basic truths of the universe,....Things don't disappear. They just change, and change and change again.

My hope still is to leave the world a bit better than when I got here.
