"I Do Not Like Green Eggs and Ham. I Do Not Like Them, Sam I Am."

Personally, I would have to say that my favorite quote is “I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life's realities," by Dr. Seuss. This quote is saying that fantasy is more exciting than reality. Nonsense makes you think differently; makes you see the world in a completely different way. It can enable you to see beauty in the most unexcpected places, humor in the most serious places, happiness in the saddest places, and acceptance in the loneliest places. This quote is absolutely one of my favorites because I would prefer fantasy over reality any day. To me, nonsense is the best thing in the world. That is why I believe children have the most beautiful minds-because they do not know fantasy from reality. They are creative and have an imagination the size of the solar system, which is why I believe children are so carefree and happy. Who would not adore if unicorns, dragons, princesses in distress, and brave knights were all nonfiction? Everyone is out to find their "happily ever after." If fantasy were real, no one would have to worry because no matter what happens in the fairytale stories, they always end with a "happily ever after." Honestly, I believe this world would be a better place if it weren't so real.

  2. I've always loved nonsense but I never thought about it this way. This world is to harsh an tries to take the fun an beauty out of everything. If everyone looked at the world through the eyes of a child the world would a much happier place. Life would most deffinantly be a better place if it wasn't so real.(:
