More quotes by Dr. Seuss
It is fun to have fun.
Dr. Seuss
I meant what I said and I said what I meant.
Dr. Seuss
People who mind don't matter. But people who matter don't mind.
Dr. Seuss
The words in this book are all phooey. When you say them, your lips will make slips and back flips and your tongue may end up in Saint Looey!
Dr. Seuss
I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sam-I-Am.
Dr. Seuss
I said, I do not fear those pants with nobody inside them. I said, and said, and said those words. I said them but I lied them.
Dr. Seuss
Gray day. Everything is gray. I watch. But nothing moves today.
Dr. Seuss
Oh the places you'll go! There is fun to be done! There are points to be scored. There are games to be won. And the magical things you can do with that ball will make you the winning-est winner of all.
Dr. Seuss
You'll get mixed up, of course, as you already know. You'll get mixed up with many strange birds as you go. So be sure when you step. Step with care and great tact and remember that Life's a Great Balancing Act. Just never forget to be dexterous and deft. And never mix up your right foot with your left.
Dr. Seuss
It all began with a shoe on the wall. A shoe on the wall shouldn't be there at all.
Dr. Seuss
The storm starts, when the drops start dropping. When the drops stop dropping then the storm starts stopping.
Dr. Seuss
Ninety percent of the children’s books patronize the child and say there’s a difference between you and me, so you listen to this story. I, for some reason or another, don’t do that. I treat the child as an equal.
Dr. Seuss
Today was good. Today was fun. Tomorrow is another one.
Dr. Seuss
I learned there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some from behind.
Dr. 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.
Dr. Seuss
It's opener, out there, in the wide, open air.
Dr. Seuss
Somehow you'll escape all that waiting and staying. You'll find the bright places where Boom Bands are playing.
Dr. Seuss
You are you. Now, isn't that unpleasant?
Dr. Seuss
The moon was out and I saw some sheep. I saw some sheep take a walk in their sleep. By the light of the moon, by the light of a star, They walked all night from near to far. I would never walk, I would take a car.
Dr. Seuss
In the house, and on the street, how many, many feet you meet.
Dr. Seuss
