You would have to be half-mad to dream me up.
Lewis Carroll
No discussion between two persons can be of any use, until each knows clearly what it is that the other asserts.
Lewis Carroll
Either it brings tears to their eyes, or else - Or else what? said Alice, for the Knight had made a sudden pause. Or else it doesn't, you know.

Lewis Carroll
While the laughter of joy is in full harmony with our deeper life, the laughter of amusement should be kept apart from it. The danger is too great of thus learning to look at solemn things in a spirit of mockery, and to seek in them opportunities for exercising wit.
Lewis Carroll

Lewis Carroll
I cannot even pretend to feel as much interest in boys as in girls.
Lewis Carroll
Where do you come from? And where are you going? Look up, speak nicely, and don't twiddle your fingers all the time.
Lewis Carroll
when she thought it over afterwards it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time it all seemed quite natural
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 wish I dared dispense with all costume. Naked children are so perfectly pure and lovely but Mrs. Grundy would be furious - it would never do.
Lewis Carroll
Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.
Lewis Carroll
Better say nothing at all. Language is worth a thousand pounds a word!
Lewis Carroll
The rule is, jam tomorrow and jam yesterday - but never jam today.
Lewis Carroll
