Why did Ted Geisel end up writing and illustrating for young minds?

“I gained your love
then lost my mind.
what a bargain.
I love you impossibly
loving you,
my heart is holding more than it can
loving you,
is making me more than I am
your beauty is more than what my soul can bear
When I am dying of thirst
you are water
When I am drowning to death
you are breath
I love you impossibly
I love you impossibly
I'd trade my limbs to hold you
I'd trade my eyes to see you”
Amir Sulaiman

For that's a passion in my own control,
A sort of besom that can clear the soul
Of everything that is not mind or sense.
William Butler Yeats

Rooms in one of those spacious old houses with the large windows facing the sun, and plenty of books—if I were that abstracted but happy form of reptile called a bookworm, which I believed I am prevented from being only by my sex, the genus, I am told, being persistently male, I would take care to spend at least one of my life’s winters in Putbus. How divinely quiet it would be. What a place for him who intends to pass an examination, to write a book, or who wants the crumples got by crushing together too long with his fellows to be smoothed out of his soul.
Elizabeth von Arnim
