Alice Blue

Made by [personal profile] bookblather

Theme: Literary
  1. We're all mad here.
  2. "Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?" "That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat. "I don't much care where—" said Alice. "Then it doesn't matter which way you go," said the Cat. "—so long as I get somewhere," Alice added as an explanation. "Oh, you're sure to do that," said the Cat, "if you only walk long enough."
  3. "it's no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then."
  4. One of the deep secrets of Life is that all, that is really worth the doing, is what we do for others? - from a letter from Lewis Carrol
  5. "If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense" - Disney's Alice in Wonderland (1951)
  6. "Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." - Through the Looking Glass
  7. "Begin at the beginning," the King said gravely, "and go on till you come to the end: then stop."
  8. Curiouser and curiouser!
  9. How queer everything is to-day!
  10. Life, what is it but a dream? - Through the Looking Glass
  11. "Well, now that we have seen each other," said the Unicorn, "if you'll believe in me, I'll believe in you. Is that a bargain?" - Through the Looking Glass
  12. "If everybody minded their own business," the Duchess said in a hoarse growl, "the world would go round a deal faster than it does."
  13. Be what you would seem to be
  14. "Everything's got a moral, if only you can find it."
  15. And remember who you are! - Through the Looking Glass
  16. "Have I gone mad?" "I'm afraid so. You're entirely bonkers. But I'll tell you a secret. All the best people are." - Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland (2010)
  17. "It's a poor sort of memory that only works backwards," the Queen remarked. - Through the Looking Glass
  18. "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." - Through the Looking Glass
  19. Off with their heads!
  20. "Well, I never heard it before," said the Mock Turtle; "but it sounds uncommon nonsense."
  21. To-day isn't any other day, you know. - Through the Looking Glass
  22. "Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place." - Through the Looking Glass
  23. "It would be so nice if something made sense for a change." - Disney's Alice in Wonderland (1951)
  24. "Speak English!" said the Eaglet. "I don't know the meaning of half those long words, and, what's more, I don't believe you do either!"
  25. When she thought it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time it all seemed quite natural

While formatting this, I found that not all the quotes were from Alice in Wonderland, and some weren't by Lewis Carroll at all. I've added attributions and replaced two that don't seem to have come from anywhere related.
