Lewis Carroll
Take care of the sense and the sounds will take care of themselves.
Lewis Carroll
Come, hearken then, ere voice of dread, with bitter tiding laden, shall summon to unwelcome bed a melancholy maiden! We are but older children, dear, who fret to find our bedtime near.

But how can you talk with a person if they always say the same thing?
Lewis Carroll

Lewis Carroll
What does it matter where my body happens to be?' he said. 'My mind goes on working all the same.
Lewis Carroll
It takes all the running you can do just to keep in the same place.
Lewis Carroll
Read the directions and directly you will be directed in the right direction.
Lewis Carroll
I have often seen a cat without a grin - but a grin without a cat - remember the cat kept appearing and disappearing slowly bit by bit.
Lewis Carroll
There ought to be a book written about me, that there ought!
Lewis Carroll
The Cheshire Cat only grinned when it saw Alice. It looked good-natured, she thought: still it had very long claws and a great many teeth, so she felt it ought to be treated with respect.
Lewis Carroll
O Oysters,' said the Carpenter, You've had a pleasant run! Shall we be trotting home again?' But answer came there none - And this was scarcely odd, because They'd eaten every one.
Lewis Carroll
Curiouser and curiouser.
