The vast unfathomable sea Is but a Notion-unto me.
Lewis Carroll
Photography is my one recreation and I think it should be done well.
Lewis Carroll
If he smiled much more, the ends of his mouth might meet behind, and then I don't know what would happen to his head! I'm afraid it would come off!
Lewis Carroll
Alice laughed. 'There's no use trying,' she said. 'One can't believe impossible things.' I daresay you haven't had much practice,' said the Queen. 'When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast. There goes the shawl again!
Lewis Carroll
