Lewis Carroll
Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.
Lewis Carroll
In a wonderland they lie, dreaming as the days go by
Lewis Carroll
People who don't think shouldn't talk.
Lewis Carroll
In fact, now I come to think of it, do we decide questions, at all? We decide answers, no doubt: but surely the questions decide us? It is the dog, you know, that wags the tail--not the tail that wags the dog.
Lewis Carroll
Soup of the evening, beautiful Soup!
