Seuss: "Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!"
Seuss: "Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities."
Seuss: "A person's a person, no matter how small."
Seuss: "The main problem with writing in verse is, if your fourth line doesn't come out right, you've got to throw four lines away and figure out a whole new way to attack the problem. So the mortality rate is terrific."
Seuss: "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not."
Seuss: "The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go."
Seuss: "You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own, and you know what you know. And you are the guy who'll decide where to go."
Seuss: "Hollywood is not suited for me, and I am not suited for it."
Seuss: "I've heard there are troubles of more than one kind; some come from ahead, and some come from behind. But I've brought a big bat. I'm all ready, you see; now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!"
Seuss: "You're never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read to a child."
Seuss: "Every once in a while, I get mad. 'The Lorax' came out of my being angry. The ecology books I'd read were dull... In 'The Lorax,' I was out to attack what I think are evil things and let the chips fall where they might."
Seuss: "I like nonsense; it wakes up the brain cells."
Seuss: "The problem with writing a book in verse is, to be successful, it has to sound like you knocked it off on a rainy Friday afternoon. It has to sound easy. When you can do it, it helps tremendously because it's a thing that forces kids to read on. You have this unconsummated feeling if you stop."
Seuss: "'The Lorax' book was intended to be propaganda."
