I guess because it rhymes, and I picked this poem to memorize and recite in front of the class in fifth grade: <br /><br />"I cannot go to school today," said little Peggy Ann McKay. "I have the measles, and the mumps, a gash, a rash, and purple bumps!"<br /><br />from "Sick" by Shel SilversteinSarah Stevensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16534942492714970282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4980381933042572592.post-28876364008994005912009-04-22T14:59:00.000-06:002009-04-22T14:59:00.000-06:00"But that is not all, oh no, that is not all" -- f..."But that is not all, oh no, that is not all" -- from The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Suess. Why that one? Maybe because I always think of rhyming stuff?

It's the first ..."It was a dark and stormy night."<br /><br />It's the first line in A Wrinkle in Time by Madeline L'Engle.

I've never read the following book (it's on my list) but thought it was a great line:<br /><br />She seemed glad to see me when I appeared in the kitchen, and by watching her I began to think there was some skill involved in being a girl. ~Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird, Chapter 12<br /><br />If you need one that I remember from the top of my head: Then I always remember the poem in Song of Solomon (bible) chapter 1 vs 2: May he kiss me with the kisses of his mouth for your expressions of endearment are sweeter than wine.
