Zitate von Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss)

You ought to be thankful a hole heaping lot,
for The places and people you're lucky you're not!

When you think things are bad,
when you feel sour and blue,
when you start to get mad...
you should do what I do!
Just tell yourself, Duckie,
you're really quite lucky!
Some people are much more...
oh, ever so much more...
oh, muchly much-much more
unlucky than you!

Manchmal erkennt man den Wert eines Augenblick erst dann, wenn er zur Erinnerung wird.

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment, until it becomes a memory.

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.

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.

Manchmal sind die Fragen kompliziert und die Antworten einfach.

Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.

Du weißt, dass du verliebt bist wenn du nicht einschlafen kannst, weil die Realität endlich besser ist als deine Träume.

You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own.
And you know what you know.
And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go...

Step with care and great tact
And remember that Life's a Great Balancing Act
Just never forget to be dexterous and deft
And never mix up your right foot with your left.

I speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues.

I am the Lorax, and I'll yell and I'll shout for the fine things on earth that are on their way out!

'Mister', erklärte er, 'ähm, mit Verlaub',
er musste noch niesen vom Sägemehlstaub.
'Ich bin der Lorax', so bellte der Wicht.
'Ich sprech' für die Bäume, denn die können's ja nicht.
Ich frage dich, Mister', er schnappte nach Luft.
'WAS machst du aus meinem Trüffelatuff?'

Lang, lang ist es her, noch grün war das Gras,
die Wolken ganz weiß
und der Teich herrlich nass,
und die Schwippschwäne sangen, der Wind trug es fort.
Da kam ich an diesen herrlichen Ort.
Und ich sah die Bäume!
Die Trüffelabäume!
Hier schaukelten sie auf grüner Wiese
die knallbunten Tuffs in der Morgenbrise.

Wenn nicht jemand wie du sich endlich kümmert, wird nichts jemals besser. Glaube mir!

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.

So, open your mouth, lad! For every voice counts!

A person's a person, no matter how small.

Nonsense wakes up the brain cells. And it helps develop a sense of humor, which is awfully important in this day and age.

The more that you read,
The more things you will know.
The more that you learn,
The more places you'll go.
