Dr. Suess Meaningfully Silly?

Today is the 106th  birthday anniversary of (Theodor Seuss Geisel)Dr. Suess. A childhood favorite of mine and my kids. Have you revisited a Dr. Suess book recently? The pure silliness, wit and rhymes are sprinkled with all types of meaningful messages and have inspired kids and adults alike to read, imagine and have fun.

“ Dr. Seuss wrapped life lessons in silly words and then rhymed them so they’d slip off our tongue easily and memorably.” Via: Famous Quotes and Quotations

 Inspired by meaningful matters that promote imagination, youth and literacy here are my Top 5 favorite Dr. Suess quotes:

  1. “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” 
  2. “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. You are the guy who’ll decide where to go.” 
  3. “Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try.”
  4.  “Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”
  5.  “Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.”

 My favorite book: “Oh The Places You’ll Go”
