"Quotes" from the Doctor

"'Grandpa!' I shouted. 'Be careful! Oh, Gee!

Who's going to drop it?

Will you...? Or will he...?'

'Be patient,' said Grandpa. 'We'll see.

We will see...'"

"Plant a new Truffula. Treat it with care.

Give it clean water. And feed it fresh air.

Grow a forest. Protect it from axes that hack.

Then the Lorax and all his friends may come 

back."

From The Lorax

"And today great Yertle, that 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."

"And it should be, it should be,

it SHOULD be like that!

Because Horton was faithful! 

He sat and he sat!

He meant what he said

And he said what he meant...

...And they sent him home

Happy,

One hundred per cent!"

From Horton Hatches the Egg

"Then he got an idea!

An awful idea!

THE GRINCH

GOT A WONDERFUL, AWFUL IDEA!"

"But McBean was quite wrong. I'm quite 

happy to say

That the Sneetches got really quite smart on 

that day,

The day they decided that Sneetches are 

Sneetches

And no kind of Sneetch is the best on the 

beaches,

That day, all the Sneetches forgot about stars

And whether they had one, or not, upon 

thars."

From The Sneetches And Other Stories

By Dr. Seuss
