Say what you mean and act how you feel,
because those who matter don’t mind,
and those who mind don’t matter.
–Dr. Seuss
*************
I think these words about sincerity from the wonderful and wise Dr. Seuss are good advice for just about anybody. For myself, I pass this advice on to young artists. Your own meaning and feeling– make that the focus of your work…
Dr. Seuss is a treasure, and a wise man. Do you remember his character, Gerald McBoingBoing? He came first, before the Cat in the Hat and all the other well-known stories. I grew up with Gerald.
If you haven’t seen it, this short 1950 cartoon supports the point of today’s quotation. Not only that, it’s delightful in itself.
Thanks! That is a great cartoon and a great story– be what you are.
