Dr. Seuss

“And today the great Yertle, the Marvelous he,

Is King of the Mud. That is all he can see.

And the turtles of course…all the turtles are free

As turtles and, maybe, all creatures should be.”  [Yertle the Turtle]

“I know, up on top you are seeing great sights,

But down at the bottom we, too, should have some rights.”  [Yertle the Turtle]

“I learned there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some from behind.”

“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.”
