Some children have the most disagreeable way of getting grown-up

Lewis Carroll 401 quotes

You evidently do not suffer from "quotation-hunger" as I do! I get all the dictionaries of quotations I can meet with, as I always want to know where a quotation comes from.

Lewis Carroll 401 quotes

Would you tell me, please, wh...

Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?" "That depends a good deal on where you want to get to." "I don't much care where –" "Then it doesn't matter which way you go.

Child of the pure unclouded brow And dreaming eyes of wonder! Though time be fleet, and I and thou Are half a life asunder, Thy loving smile will surely hail The love-gift of a fairy-tale.

Lewis Carroll 401 quotes

You may charge me with murder...

You may charge me with murder--or want of sense-- (We are all of us weak at times): But the slightest approach to a false pretence Was never among my crimes!

Lewis Carroll 401 quotes

Alice had got so much into the way of expecting nothing but out-of-the-way things to happen, that it seemed quite dull and stupid for life to go on in the common way.

Lewis Carroll 401 quotes

Well, "slithy" means "lithe a...

Well, "slithy" means "lithe and slimy." "Lithe" is the same as "active." You see it's like a portmanteau - there are two meanings packed up into one word.

I don't see how he can ever finish, if he doesn't begin.

I have proved by actual trial that a letter, that takes an hour to write, takes only about 3 minutes to read!

?You're not the same as you were before," he said. You were much more... muchier... you've lost your muchness.

Lewis Carroll 401 quotes

I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says "Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.

If you do not know where you want to go, it doesn't matter which path you take.

The proper definition of a man is an animal that writes letters.

There is a place. Like no place on Earth. A land full of wonder, mystery, and danger! Some say to survive it: You need to be as mad as a hatter. Which luckily I am.

You have to run as fast as you can just to stay where you are. If you want to get anywhere, you'll have to run much faster.

Lewis Carroll 401 quotes

Be sure the safest rule is that we should not dare to live in any scene in which we dare not die. But, once realise what the true object is in life ? that it is not pleasure, not knowledge, not even fame itself, 'that last infirmity of noble minds' ? but that it is the development of character, the rising to a higher, nobler, purer standard, the building-up of the perfect Man ? and then, so long as we feel that this is going on, and will (we trust) go on for evermore, death has for us no terror; it is not a shadow, but a light; not an end, but a beginning!

Lewis Carroll 401 quotes

No discussion between two per...

No discussion between two persons can be of any use, until each knows clearly what it is that the other asserts.
