My favourite Dr. Seuss quotes to lift up my day

Dr. Seuss was undoubtedly, a literary genius. An author that was childish yet sophisticated, comical yet seriousness. His work seems to be a right of passage for the childhoods of everyone and even in our adult lives. Here are some of my favourite Dr. Seuss quotes and why they make me feel better. 

• ‘’Unless someone like you cares a whole lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not’’.

Simple yet true. Sometimes it can seem daunting to worry about such big problems. Like you have no control over them at all. However, the humble truth is that you need to care, and until someone like you does, nothing will ever change.

• ‘’The more that you read the more things that you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go’’.

Education is a human right but unfortunately the truth is that education is a gift and a privilege, one that many are not afforded. It is a wonderful thing that I can read. To have a gift that can take you anywhere in the world. Something that no one can take away from you.

• "You’re in pretty good shape for the shape you are in."

This one just comforts my laziness a bit.

• ‘’Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!’’

Sometimes we all feel the pressure to act, dress or behave in a certain away, even if it’s not what we’re comfortable with, or not what we really want to do. However, no matter what, we are always ourselves at every moment in time.

• “Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the things you can think up if only you try!’’

Never stop questioning and thinking. Creativity is some we all have and something we can all continue develop (and one of the few things separating us from robots these days). So, always think of the most wonderful crazy things, and then keep thinking.
