Pick a side.

You're either independent or not.

Stop teetering back and forth between needing nobody and wanting somebody.

Admitting you're lonely is the first mistake.

Batter up, rookie.

Oh, the Places You'll Go!*

There is fun to be done!

There are points to be scored.

There are games to be won.

And the magical things you can do with that ball will make you the winning-est winner of all.

Fame!

You’ll be famous as famous can be, with the whole wide world watching you win on TV.

Except when they don’t.

Because, sometimes, they won’t.

I’m afraid that some times you’ll play lonely games, too.

Games you can’t win ‘cause you’ll play against you.

All Alone!

Whether you like it or not, Alone will be something you’ll be quite a lot.


Ain't it the truth, Mr. Geisel.
