A little Dr. Seuss wisdom from “Dr. Seuss’s Sleep Book”:

“A moose is asleep.

He is dreaming of moose drinks.

A goose is asleep.

He is dreaming of goose drinks.

That’s well and good when a moose dreams of moose juice.

And nothing goes wrong when a goose dreams of goose juice.

But it isn’t too good when a moose and a goose

Start dreaming they’re drinking the other one’s juice.

Moose juice, not goose juice, is juice for a moose

And goose juice, not moose juice, is juice for a goose.

So, when goose gets a mouthful of juices of mooses

And moose gets a mouthful of juices of goose’s,

They always fall out of their beds screaming screams

SO…

I’m warning you, now! Never drink in your dreams!”

Sleep responsibly, everyone.

I’ve decided I love Calvin Coolidge quotes.  Some a pretty profound.  Others are, well, you’ll see…

“When a great many people are unable to find work, unemployment results.”

“We cannot do everything at once, but we can do something at once. ”

“It is only when men begin to worship that they begin to grow.”

“It takes a great man to be a good listener.”

“Heroism is not only in the man, but in the occasion.”

“Any man who does not like dogs and want them about does not deserve to be in the White House.  ”

“If you don’t say anything, you won’t be called on to repeat it.”

“All growth depends upon activity. There is no development physically or intellectually without effort, and effort means work.”

And one story…

A man approached him and said, “Mr. Coolidge, I’ve made a bet against a fellow who said it was impossible to get more than two words out of you.” Coolidge replied, “You lose.”
