More quotes by Lewis Carroll
Courtesy is a small act but it packs a mighty wallop.
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
The rule is, jam tomorrow and jam yesterday-but never jam today It must come sometime to jam today, Alice objected No it can't said the Queen It's jame every other day. Today isn't any other day, you know
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
I'm not strange, weird, off, nor crazy, my reality is just different from yours.
Lewis Carroll
Where one is hopelessly undecided as to what to say, there (as Confucius would have said, if they had given him the opportunity) silence is golden.
Lewis Carroll
If you want to inspire confidence, give plenty of statistics. It does not matter that they should be accurate, or even intelligible, as long as there is enough of them.
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 was for bringing the cook tulip-roots instead of onions.
Lewis Carroll
I'm very brave generally,' he went on in a low voice: 'only today I happen to have a headache.' (Tweedledum)
Lewis Carroll
For, you see, so many out-of-the-way things had happened lately, that Alice had begun to think that very few things indeed were really impossible.
Lewis Carroll
So she sat on with closed eyes, and half believed herself in Wonderland, though she knew she had but to open them again, and all would change to dull reality.
Lewis Carroll
There ought to be a book written about me, that there ought!
Lewis Carroll
What do you suppose is the use of a child without any meaning? Even a joke should have some meaning-- and a child's more imporant than a joke, I hope. You couldn't deny that, even if you tried with both hands.
Lewis Carroll
I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it.
Lewis Carroll
She tried to fancy what the flame of a candle is like after the candle is blown out, for she could not remember ever having seen such a thing.
Lewis Carroll
She can't do Subtraction. said the White Queen. Can you do Division? Divide a loaf by a knife-what's the answer to that? I suppose- Alice was beginning, but the Red Queen answered for her. Bread-and-butter, of course.
Lewis Carroll
'What is the use of a book', thought Alice, 'without pictures or conversations?'
Lewis Carroll
If you set to work to believe everything, you will tire out the believing-muscles of your mind, and then you'll be so weak you won't be able to believe the simplest true things.
Lewis Carroll
His answer trickled through my head like water through a sieve.
