Looking for the Best Dr. Seuss Quotes?
Here is a list of popular sayings or “Seuss-isms” from
Theodore Geisel “Dr. Seuss” (1904 – 1991) author and illustrator.
1. A person’s a person, no matter how small.
2. You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself, any direction you choose.
3. Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you.
4. From there to here, and here to there, funny things are everywhere.
5. Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.
6. Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So… get on your way.
7. If you never did, you should. These things are fun, and fun is good.
8. I meant what I said, and I said what I meant. An elephant’s faithful, one hundred percent.
9. So the writer who breeds more words than he needs, is making a chore for the reader who reads.
10. And will you succeed? Yes indeed, yes indeed! Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed.
11. Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.
12. All alone! Whether you like it or not, alone is something you’ll be quite a lot. – Dr. Seuss
13. The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.
14. Today was good. Today was fun. Tomorrow is another one.
15. Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the things you can think up if only you try!
16. Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.
17. I’m afraid sometimes you’ll play lonely games too, games you can’t win because you’ll play against you
18. I’m sorry to say so but, sadly it’s true that bang-ups and hang-ups can happen to you
19. I know up on the top you are seeing great sights, but down at the bottom we, too, should have rights.
20. Say what you want do what you feel becuase those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.

FUN words of wisdom!
These are great. Another good Dr. Seuss quote is. “We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.”
Love.
These are awesome! thanks for the post! dude this guy has an amazing way of turning all those words of wisdom into things that kids and adults can understand
He’s like the best writer ever!!!
These quotes are amazing! I’ve never heard a couple of these quotes but they don’t surprise me on how well thought-out they are. I grew up reading Dr. Suess and still read them every so often! Thanks for always making my imagination grow
The day I first found out that Dr. Seuss originated, ‘Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened,’ was one of the happiest days of my life. Here is a true genius who was friends with everyone he met. I admire him greatly. He was an intelligent, caring, wonderful man, with the gall to look the dictionary square in the face and say, ‘When your words aren’t good enough for me, I’m going to make up my own. I am not going to be limited by ‘real’ language. Who says hamikkaschnimikkaschnamikkaschnopp can’t be a word? Who says there isn’t such a thing as a Lorax? And to go in the other direction, who says I can’t write a book with only 50 different words? Who says I can’t give kids a love of language with my OWN language?’ His words and books and pictures and imagination and EVERYTHING will entertain children for generations. And he will be missed dearly. I remember writing a report on him in 3rd grade……those were lighter times, better times. It’s hard for me not to let nostalgia get the better of me. Dr. Seuss was an indescribably huge part of my childhood that I wouldn’t give up for the world. R.I.P., Dr. Seuss. We love you.
“We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.”
- Dr. Seuss
(My favorite quote by him)
I think this lis is fantastic, but you missed my personal favorite “You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep, because reality is better than your dreams”

I love how I recognized almost all of these quotes from different dr seuss books that I read throughout my childhood

There can be no inexorable provided there exist enthusiasm to reflect precisely what is happening.
