'Sesame Street' was a pioneering educational T.V. show, intended to help underprivileged children. But even those of us middle-class kids spoilt for pedagogical choice couldn't get enough of it.

'Sesame Street's' genius lies in finding gentle ways to talk about hard things - death, divorce, danger - in terms that children understand and accept.

I learned my ABCs, 1-2-3 from 'Sesame Street.'

'Sesame Street' is awesome - not only because they teach, edify and entertain kids but because they savvily make it possible to do so with parental engagement, because the show is loaded with references for Mom and Dad.

I really learned the power of the tube on Sesame Street and how it can influence a very young mind.

We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves.

I expect a zombie to show up on 'Sesame Street' soon, teaching kids to count.

I've gotten to hang out with Elmo, I'm the Fairy Shoeperson on 'Sesame Street'. So hopefully our kids will get to see and hear me as much as they're able.

I understood that without English I would never get far, so my dream was to become a receptionist, and so I started to learn English from watching 'Sesame Street.'

If my life was a song it would be, 'It ain't that easy being green' from Sesame Street.
