Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!

http://www.newbloggycat.com
Remembering the amazing Dr Seuss with some of his witty, wacky and fun quotes:-
β€œToday you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you.”
β€œFrom there to here, and here to there, funny things are everywhere.”
β€œJust tell yourself, Duckie, you’re really quite lucky.”
β€œA person’s a person, no matter how small.”
β€œBe who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”
β€œWe are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.”
β€œI’m sorry to say so but, sadly, it’s true that bang-ups and hang-ups can happen to you.”
β€œ I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It’s a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life’s realities.β€œ
β€œWhy fit in when you were born to stand out.”
“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, Nothing is going to get better. It’s not.”
β€œFrom there to here, and here to there, funny things are everywhere.”
β€œSometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.”
β€œYou’ll miss the best things if you keep your eyes shut.”
β€œYou’re in pretty good shape for the shape you are in.”
β€œASAP. Whatever that means. It must mean, β€˜Act swiftly awesome pacyderm!”
Adults are just obsolete children and the hell with them.”
β€œYou’re never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read to a child.”
β€œThink left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try!”
β€œDon’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.”
β€œLife is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets.”
When Shaye was a toddler, she made me read these books over and over again. And I could never skip any pages. She had memorized every page. Lol!

Quote of the day – Karen DeCrow

“No matter what is happening in life
or in the world – war, natural
disaster, poor health, pain, the death
of loved ones – if existence is filled
with art, music and literature, life
will be fulfilling, a joy.”

β€œI was born in the
clutches of tragedy.
Destined to be

in the fiery ferocity.
My tiger stripes
are earned.”
