Final stanza from the 1961 Dr. Suess book: The Sneetches -
"I’m quite happy to say / That the Sneetches got really quite smart on
that day, / The day they decided that Sneetches are Sneetches / And no
kind of Sneetch is the best on the beaches. / That day, all the
Sneetches forgot about stars / And whether they had one, or not, upon
thars."
