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
Epithets, like pepper, Give zest to what you write And if you strew them sparely, They whet the appetite: But if you lay them on too thick, You spoil the matter quite!
Lewis Carroll
She's in that state of mind that she wants to deny SOMETHING only she doesn't know what to deny!
