Happy Birthday Theodor Seuss Geisel
What can I say about Dr. Seuss? He was a literary genius, he encouraged millions of children to take up reading, and he left pearls of wisdom sprinkled along the way.
Some of my favorites are:
Today you are You, that is truer than true.
There is no one alive who is Youer than You.
Be who you are and say what you feel
because those who mind don't matter
and those who matter don't mind.
Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
I meant what I said and I said what I meant.
[A]s you partake of the world's bill of fare,
that's darned good advice to follow.
Do a lot of spitting out the hot air.
And be careful what you swallow.
