    As I made my way down the street to The Art of Dr. Seuss on Geary Street near Union Square, I reminisced about Theodor Seuss Geisel, better known as the alias ‘Dr. Seuss.’ I recalled a certain memory dating back to my elementary years in which it was a cold, foggy morning.

Their disobedience was the first sin committed
