Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss





Ten inspiring quotes from Dr Seuss.


  1. “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.”
  2. “Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You."
  3. “Don’t give up! I believe in you all. A person's a person, no matter how small.”
  4. "I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I've brought a big bat, I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!"
  5. “You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.”
  6. “Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.”
  7. “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.”
  8. “I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living.”
  9. “Why fit in when you were born to stand out?”
  10. “Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try!”

    Indian Americans Have Always Faced Racism, But 'Model Minorities' Don't Speak Out

    The anti-immigrant, hate-driven rhetoric of the present United States administration is transforming to be deadly for the Indian American community, which has carved a home in the silence that accompanies the model minority stereotype that is befitted upon them.
