Today is Dr. Seuss’s 105th. I went looking this morning for a quote of his on activism — not something from one of his books — but apparently I’m misremembering it, because Google turns up nothing. So I’ll settle for this one:

Look what we found 
in the park 
in the dark. 
We will take him home. 
We will call him Clark.

He will live at our house. 
He will grow and grow. 
Will our mother like this? 
We don’t know.

I’ve always thought that kind of summed up the craft of historical research.

Feel free to pass along your favorite Seuss quotes (or books!) in comments.
