Additional quotes by Lewis Carroll

If you'll believe in me, I'll believe in you. Is that a bargain?

The rabbits bow before thee, And cower in the straw; The chickens are submissive, And own thy will for law; Bullfinches and canary Thy bidding do obey; And e'en the tortoise in its shell Doth never say thee nay.

And if he left off dreaming about you, where do you suppose you'd be?
