Alice and the Cat
Quotes: Alice in Wonderland
Quotes: Alice in Wonderland
Alice: Would you tell me, please,
which way I ought to go from here?
The Cat: That depends a good deal
on where you want to get to.
Alice: I don't much care where.
The Cat: Then it doesn't much matter
which way you go.
Alice: …so long as I get somewhere.
The Cat: Oh, you're sure to do that,
if only you walk long enough.
(Take a message from an invisible cat: So many people rush along, making sure the road they travel is a good road, a safe road, a popular road, an easy road...but not enough give thought to their destination, and, after all, that's the most important goal of a road...oh I know all about stopping and smelling roses. That's important too, but it pales beside the real purpose. Upon arrival, where are you? It seems almost facetious to hide an important message like that in the fantasy words of an invisible cat...but I think Carroll was a subtle writer. )
