Lewis Carroll
One can't believe impossible things.
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.
Lewis Carroll

Lewis Carroll
But oh, beamish nephew, beware of the day, If your Snark be a Boojum! for then You will softly and suddenly vanish away, And never be met with again!
Lewis Carroll

Lewis Carroll
I know who I WAS when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then
Lewis Carroll
The proper definition of a man is an animal that writes letters.
Lewis Carroll
'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less.'
Lewis Carroll
Thy loving smile will surely hail The love-gift of a fairy tale.
Lewis Carroll
You have to run as fast as you can just to stay where you are. If you want to get anywhere, you'll have to run much faster.
Lewis Carroll
It's too late to correct it: when you've once said a thing, that fixes it, and you must take the consequences.
Lewis Carroll
Un-dish-cover the fish, or dishcover the riddle.
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
One of the deepest motives (as you are aware) in the human beast (so deep that many have failed to detect it) is Alliteration.
Lewis Carroll
But, I nearly forgot, you must close your eyes otherwise you won't see anything.
Lewis Carroll
