and all of his friends
may come back."”

In the heat of the day, in the cool of the pool,

When Horton the elephant heard a small noise.”

“… and the wolf chewed up the children and spit out their bones … But those were Foreign Children and it really didn’t matter …”

“Now all that was left 'neath the bad-smelling sky
was my big empty factory…
the Lorax…
and I.
The Lorax said nothing.
Just gave me a glance,
just gave me a very sad, sad backward glance,
as he lifted himself by the seat of his pants.
And I'll never forget the grim look on his face
when he heisted himself and took leave of this place,
through a hole in the smog, without leaving a trace.
And all that the Lorax left here in this mess
was a small pile of rocks with the one word:
UNLESS.”

"Tell me! Do tell!
Are you safe? Are you sound?
Are you whole? Are you well?”

“So...
Catch!”

That I never could spell if I stopped with the Z.

Sam-I-Am.”
