Lewis Carroll Quotes and Quotations
'The horror of that moment,' the King went on, T shall never, never forget!' 'You will, though,'the Queen said, 'if you don't make a memorandum of it.'

Take care of the sense and the sounds will take of care themselves. "The horror of that moment," the King went on, "I shall never forget." "You will, though," the Queen said, "if you don't make a memorandum of it." Sometimes I have believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast. "Tut, tut, child," said the Duchess. "Everything's got a moral if only you can find it." "The time has come," the Walrus said, "To talk of many things; Of shoes - and ships - and sealing-wax - Of cabbages - and kings - And why the sea is boiling hot - And whether pigs have wings." |
