Alice in Wonderland quotes from Alice
“And what is the use of a book,” thought Alice, “without pictures or conversations?”
"But that's just the trouble with me. I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it."
"If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense."
“How funny it’ll seem to come out among the people that walk with their heads downwards! The antipathies, I think—”
"Oh, dear. I do wish I hadn't cried so much."
It was all very well to say “Drink me,” but the wise little Alice was not going to do that in a hurry. “No, I’ll look first,” she said, “and see whether it’s marked ‘poison’ or not.”
"For if one drinks much from a bottle marked 'poison,' it's almost certain to disagree with one sooner or later."
"Curiouser and curiouser!"
"It would be so nice if something made sense for a change."
“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!”
"Well, I’ve had enough nonsense. I’m going home!"
“I suppose I ought to eat or drink something or other; but the great question is ‘What?’”
“I do wish I hadn’t drunk quite so much!”
"When I get home I shall write a book about this place."
“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!”
"I'm afraid I can't explain myself, sir. Because I'm not myself, you know."
"Well, I can’t put it any more clearly, sir, for it isn't clear to me."
“How do you like the Queen?” said the Cat in a low voice.
“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.”
"But how can one possibly pay attention to a book with no pictures in it?"
"Nothing would be what it is because everything would be what it isn't. And contrariwise, what it is, it wouldn't be, and what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?"

Alice in Wonderland quotes from Mad Hatter
“The Mad Hatter: "Would you like some wine?"
Alice: "Yes..."
The Mad Hatter: "We haven't any and you're too young.”
“Really, now you ask me,” said Alice, very much confused, “I don’t think—”
“Then you shouldn’t talk,” said the Hatter.
“Take some more tea,” the March Hare said to Alice, very earnestly.
“I’ve had nothing yet,” Alice replied in an offended tone: “so I ca’n’t take more.”
“You mean you ca’n’t take less,” said the Hatter: “It’s very easy to take more than nothing.”
“Mad Hatter: “Why is a raven like a writing-desk?”
“Have you guessed the riddle yet?” the Hatter said, turning to Alice again.
“No, I give it up,” Alice replied: “What’s the answer?”
“I haven’t the slightest idea,” said the Hatter”
"Twinkle twinkle little bat. How I wonder what you're at. Up and above the world you fly, like a tea tray in the sky."
"You can always take more than nothing.''
“Yes, that's it! Said the Hatter with a sigh, it's always tea time.”
Alice in Wonderland quotes from White Rabbit
“The Duchess! The Duchess! Oh my dear paws! Oh my fur and whiskers! She’ll get me executed, as sure as ferrets are ferrets!”
"I’m late, I’m late! For a very important date! No time to say ‘hello, goodbye,’ I’m late, I’m late, I’m late!"
“Alice: How long is forever?
White Rabbit: Sometimes, just one second.”
"Oh, my fur and whiskers! I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!"

Alice in Wonderland quotes from Cheshire Cat
“One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. ‘Which road do I take?’ she asked. ‘Where do you want to go?’ was his response. ‘I don’t know,’ Alice answered. ‘Then,’ said the cat, ‘it doesn’t matter.”
“Alice: Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?
The Cheshire Cat: That depends a good deal on where you want to get to.
Alice: I don't much care where.
The Cheshire Cat: Then it doesn't much matter which way you go.
Alice: ...So long as I get somewhere.
The Cheshire Cat: Oh, you're sure to do that, if only you walk long enough.”
“In that direction,” the Cat said, waving its right paw round, “lives a Hatter: and in that direction,” waving the other paw, “lives a March Hare. Visit either you like: they’re both mad.”
“But I don’t want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked.
“Oh, you ca’n’t help that,” said the Cat: “we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad.”
“How do you know I’m mad?” said Alice.
“You must be,” said the Cat, “or you wouldn’t have come here.”
“If you don't know where you want to go, then it doesn't matter which path you take.”
“Alice: Where Should I go?
Cheshire Cat: That depends, where do you want to end up?”
“To begin with,” said the Cat, “a dog’s not mad. You grant that?”
“I suppose so,” said Alice.
“Well, then,” the Cat went on, “you see a dog growls when it’s angry, and wags it’s tail when it’s pleased. Now I growl when I’m pleased, and wag my tail when I’m angry. Therefore I’m mad.”
“I call it purring, not growling,” said Alice.
“Call it what you like,” said the Cat.
"Can you stand on your head?"
"Lose something?"
"Most everyone's mad here."
"You may have noticed that I’m not all there myself."
Alice in Wonderland quotes from Caterpillar
“Who are you?” said the Caterpillar.
This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation. 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.”
“What do you mean by that?” said the Caterpillar, sternly. “Explain yourself!”
“I ca’n’t explain myself, I’m afraid, Sir,” said Alice, “because I am not myself, you see.”
"The mushroom, of course!"
“Keep your temper, said the Caterpillar.”
“I wish creatures wouldn't be so easily offended!", "You'll get used to it in time," said the Caterpillar; and it put the hookah into its mouth and began smoking again.”

Queen of Hearts Alice in Wonderland quotes
The Queen turned crimson with fury, and, after glaring at her for a moment like a wild beast, began screaming “Off with her head! Off with—”
“Nonsense!” said Alice, very loudly and decidedly, and the Queen was silent
“No, no!” said the Queen. “Sentence first—verdict afterwards.”
“My dear, here we must run as fast as we can, just to stay in place. And if you wish to go anywhere you must run twice as fast as that.”
“There is no use trying," said Alice; "one can't believe impossible things." "I dare say you haven't had much practice," said the Queen. "When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."
”
"Curtsey while you're thinking. It saves time."
"That's enough! Off with their heads!"
"Who's been painting my roses red?"
"Someone's head will roll for this!"

“The best way to explain it is to do it.”
THE DUCHESS QUOTES
“If everybody minded their own business,” the Duchess said, in a hoarse growl, “the world would go round a deal faster than it does.”
“You're thinking about something, my dear, and that makes you forget to talk. I can't tell you just now what the moral of that is, but I shall remember it in a bit."
"Perhaps it hasn't one," Alice ventured to remark.
“Tut, tut, child!” said the Duchess. “Everything’s got a moral, if only you can find it.”
“And the moral of that is—’Oh, ‘tis love, ‘tis love, that makes the world go round!’”
“Somebody said,” Alice whispered, “that it’s done by everybody minding their own business!”
“Ah well! It means much the same thing,” said the Duchess, digging her sharp little chin into Alice’s shoulder as she added, “and the moral of that is—‘Take care of the sense, and the sounds will take care of themselves.’”
“And the moral of that is—‘Be what you would seem to be’—or, if you’d like it put more simply—‘Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.’”
“Of course it is,’ said the Duchess, who seemed ready to agree to everything
that Alice said; ‘there’s a large mustard-mine near here. And the moral
of that is– “The more there is of mine, the less there is of yours.”
