Dr. Seuss Quotes

Dr. Seuss's quotes are fun and lighthearted.

Dr. Seuss was a cartoonist, poet, and writer, his real name was Theodore Seuss Geisel. He was born on March 2, 1904.

Dr. Seuss is best known for the books he has written for children. Books like, “The Cat in the Hat, Horton Hatches the Egg, Green Eggs and Ham, Horton Hears a Who and How the Grinch Stole Christmas.”

My favorite Dr. Seuss quote is the one where he said, “How did it get so late so soon? It's night before its afternoon. December is here before its June. My goodness, how the time has flown. How did it get so late so soon?” The preceding words clearly lay out the fact that time passes away in a blink of an eye.

Like his books, Dr. Seuss' quotes are easy enough for a child to understand and interesting enough to keep adults satisfied.
