It has often been said
there’s so much to be read,
you never can cram
all those words in your head.

So the writer who breeds
more words than he needs
is making a chore
for the reader who reads.

That's why my belief is
the briefer the brief is,
the greater the sigh
of the reader's relief is.

And that's why your books
have such power and strength.
You publish with shorth!
(Shorth is better than length.)

Additional quotes by Dr. Seuss

Got something new , maybe it'll work before the end of the day if that's ok .

I'd have no more troubles...
That's what the man said. So I started to go.
But I didn't.
Instead ....
I did some quick thinking
Inside of my head. Then I started back home
To the Valley of Vung.</br>I know I'll have troubles.
I'll maybe get stung.
I'll always have troubles.
I'll maybe get bit
By that Green-Headed Quail
On the place where I sit. But I've bought a big bat.
I'm all ready, you see.
Now my troubles are going
To have troubles with me!
