"You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And you are the guy Who'll decide where you go." -- Dr. Seuss, Oh, the Places You'll Go!

I love Dr. Sues; I think he was brilliant in his own kind of way. This statement proves just that, by stating the obvious. Most people do not realize that they choose their own path in life; they think it was just an unlucky hand dealt to them.
The quote is a part in the book "Oh! The Places You'll Go, it tells a story about the ups and downs of life in general. It inspires one to take their life head on and live it instead of trying to survive it. It says in the quote “you can steer yourself any direction you choose” meaning if you want something bad enough you can achieve anything.
