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
I have seen so many extraordinary things, nothing seems extraordinary any more
Lewis Carroll
And as to being in a fright, Allow me to remark That Ghosts have just as good a right In every way, to fear the light, As Men to fear the dark.

But how can you talk with a person if they always say the same thing?
Lewis Carroll
I should like the whole race of nurses to be abolished: children should be with their mother as much as possible, in my opinion.
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
You shouldn't make jokes if it makes you so unhappy.
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
Take care of the sense and the sounds will take care of themselves.
Lewis Carroll
You're thinking about something, my dear, and that makes you forget to talk.
Lewis Carroll

Lewis Carroll
