If you ever get a chance to read The Complete Works of Lewis Caroll....do it. Guy was amazing. He writes in giant beautiful metaphors and it's awesome. He completely changes space and time and logic in a great way.
If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?
-Alice
It would be so nice if something made sense for a change.
-Alice
The adventures first… explanations take such a dreadful time.
-The Gryphon
If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there.
-Lewis Carroll
Sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast
-The Queen
But it's no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then
-Alice
'But I don't want to go among mad people,' said Alice. 'Oh, you can't help that,' said the cat. 'We're all mad here.'
Everything's got a moral, if only you can find it.
One of the secrets of life is that all that is really worth the doing is what we do for others.
She generally gave herself very good advice, (though she very seldom followed it).

That's the reason they're called lessons, because they lesson from day to day.
The rule is, jam tomorrow and jam yesterday - but never jam today.
While the laughter of joy is in full harmony with our deeper life, the laughter of amusement should be kept apart from it. The danger is too great of thus learning to look at solemn things in a spirit of mockery, and to seek in them opportunities for exercising wit.
Who in the world am I? Ah, that's the great puzzle.
-Lewis Carrol
