“Then it doesn’t matter which way you go,” said the Cat. “That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,” said the Cat. “Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?” “I ca’n’t explain myself, I’m afraid, Sir,” said Alice, “because I am not myself, you see.” -Chapter 5, Advice from a Caterpillar “What do you mean by that?” said the Caterpillar, sternly. Alice replied, rather shyly, “I-I hardly know, Sir, just at present-at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.” This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation. “The Duchess! The Duchess! Oh my dear paws! Oh my fur and whiskers! She’ll get me executed, as sure as ferrets are ferrets!” -Chapter 4, The Rabbit Sends in a Little Bill The Caterpillar quotes “The best way to explain it is to do it.” -Chapter 3, A Caucus-Race and a Long Tale The White Rabbit quotes “I’m older than you, and must know better.” -Chapter 3, A Caucus-Race and a Long Tale The Dodo quotes “I don’t know the meaning of half those long words, and, what’s more, I don’t believe you do either!” -Chapter 3, A Caucus-Race and a Long Tale The Lory quotes “I don’t see how he can ever finish, if he doesn’t begin.” -Chapter 9, The Mock Turtle’s Story The Eaglet quotes “Not at all,” said Alice: “she’s so extremely-” Just then she noticed that the Queen was close behind her, listening: so she went on “-likely to win, that it’s hardly worth while finishing the game.” -Chapter 8, The Queen’s Croquet-Ground “How do you like the Queen?” said the Cat in a low voice. “Well! I’ve often seen a cat without a grin,” thought Alice “but a grin without a cat! It’s the most curious thing I ever saw in all my life!” -Chapter 6, Pig and Pepper “When I used to read fairy tales, I fancied that kind of thing never happened, and now here I am in the middle of one!” -Chapter 4, The Rabbit Sends in a Little Bill “I do wish I hadn’t drunk quite so much!” -Chapter 4, The Rabbit Sends in a Little Bill “I suppose I ought to eat or drink something or other but the great question is ‘What?’” -Chapter 4, The Rabbit Sends in a Little Bill “I shall be punished for it now, I suppose, by being drowned in my own tears! That will be a queer thing, to be sure! However, everything is queer to-day.” -Chapter 2, The Pool of Tears “I wish I hadn’t cried so much!” said Alice, as she swam about, trying to find her way out. “Curiouser and curiouser!” cried Alice (she was so much surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English). -Chapter 2, The Pool of Tears “But it’s no use now,” thought poor Alice, “to pretend to be two people! Why, there’s hardly enough of me left to make one respectable person!” -Chapter 1, Down the Rabbit-Hole “No, I’ll look first,” she said, “and see whether it’s marked ‘poison ’ or not.” -Chapter 1, Down the Rabbit-Hole It was all very well to say “Drink me,” but the wise little Alice was not going to do that in a hurry.
