Dr Seuss Quotes

Dr Seuss Quotes

Get a taste of Dr Seuss quotes and begin to see how this American writer and cartoonist endeared himself to both children and adults.

Born as Theodor Seuss Geisel (1904 - 1991), Dr. Seuss was best-known for his classic children's books under his pen name. Among his most popular books includes "The Cat in the Hat", "How the Grinch Stole Christmas", "Green Eggs and Ham" and "One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish".

Go through his quote collection below and you'll experience his trademark of rhyming text which sings to you.

I read a few of his books as a kid but I guess I was too young then to comprehend the wonder of his rhyming text. But... his outlandish characters left a big impression even on my young mind then. Till today, even though I can't remember any of the story lines, I could recall his characters.

Reading his quotes now gives me a better appreciation of his wise and witty observations.

Enjoy these wonderful Dr Seuss quotes!


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

And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.
