Quotes 

• Lady Elaine Fairchilde : [on the phone with the king]  Hello, Friday, I'm ready to talk turkey. I did *not* call you a turkey.

• King Friday XIII : It gives me great pleasure to welcome back to our Neighborhood of Make Believe, the Museum Go Round and its curator, Lady Elaine Fairchilde, who knows so well how to talk eagle.

  Lady Elaine Fairchilde : Talk turkey, Friday.

  King Friday XIII : Oh, yes. Turkey.

  Lady Elaine Fairchilde : Let's always talk turkey and play.

  [everybody cheers] 

• Mr. Rogers : I remember when I was a boy and there were times when a lot of people would be laughing and playing very loudly, I'd often want to call out, "Stop it. It's too loud!" But I was afraid to do that then. I can do it now though. I guess that's one thing about growing up: you can know when you've had enough of something and you can do something about it. And when you say stop to one thing, you can start doing something else - something else that feels better to you.

• Mr. Rogers : There are so many good ways to play. In fact, one of the best things about being a child is that you can try so many of them and find which ways you like to play best.
