The Lorax Quotes: Eco-Friendly Wisdom from Dr. Seuss
Lorax Quotes Have Green Living Message
Dr. Seuss wrote simple rhyming books for kids, but he often had a message that was an important reminder for all of us. He gave us such a message in "The Lorax," his 1971 story about a man who chops down all the trees to make "Thneeds," and in the process, destroys the environment for all the creatures in the area. The book has recently been made into an animated movie starring Danny DeVito as the voice of The Lorax. The movie expands upon the book, adding new characters and new scenes, but stays true to the original message of the book - we must be careful with our earth. Here are some Lorax quotes from the original book that remind us all of this important message.
I am the Lorax, I speak for the trees. I speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues.
