More quotes by Lewis Carroll
No Ghost of any common sense begins a conversation
Lewis Carroll
We haven't any and you're too young.
Lewis Carroll
For first you write a sentence, And then you chop it small Then mix the bits and sort them out Just as they chance to fall: The order of the phrases makes no difference at all.
Lewis Carroll
And here Alice began to get rather sleepy, and went on saying to herself, in a dreamy sort of way, 'Do cats eat bats? Do cats eat bats?' and sometimes, 'Do bats eat cats?' for, you see, as she couldn't answer either question, it didn't much matter which way she put it.
Lewis Carroll
It's too late to correct it: when you've once said a thing, that fixes it, and you must take the consequences.
Lewis Carroll
As life draws nearer to its end, I feel more and more clearly that it will not matter in the least, at the last day, what form of religion a man has professed-nay, that many who have never even heard of Christ, will in that day find themselves saved by His blood.
Lewis Carroll
And as to being in a fright, Allow me to remark That Ghosts have just as good a right In every way, to fear the light, As Men to fear the dark.
Lewis Carroll
I said it in Hebrew—I said it in Dutch— I said it in German and Greek But I wholly forgot (and it vexes me much) That English is what you speak!
Lewis Carroll
And ever, as the story drained The wells of fancy dry, And faintly strove that weary one To put the subject by, The rest next time-- It is next time! The Happy voice cry. Thus grew the tale of Wonderland
Lewis Carroll
You're thinking about something, my dear, and that makes you forget to talk.
Lewis Carroll
That's the reason they're called lessons, because they lesson from day to day.
Lewis Carroll
Thy loving smile will surely hail The love-gift of a fairy tale.
Lewis Carroll
I don't think... then you shouldn't talk, said the Hatter.
Lewis Carroll
Is Life itself a dream, I wonder?
Lewis Carroll
There comes a pause, for human strength will not endure to dance without cessation and everyone must reach the point at length of absolute prostration.
Lewis Carroll
They've a temper, some of them - particularly verbs, they're the proudest - adjectives you can do anything with, but not verbs.
Lewis Carroll
I'm not strange, weird, off, nor crazy, my reality is just different from yours.
Lewis Carroll
Who ARE You? This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation. Alice replied, rather shyly, I--I hardly know, sir, just at present-- at least I know who I WAS when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.
Lewis Carroll
If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense.
Lewis Carroll
Be who you are, said the Duchess to Alice, or, if you would like it put more simply, never try to be what you might have been or could have been other than what you should have been.
Lewis Carroll
