A few quotes Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad.” Mad Hatter: “Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” Mad Hatter: “Why is a raven like a writing-desk?” Alice: “I'm afraid I can't explain myself, sir. Because I am not myself, you see?” Alice: “Curiouser and curiouser!” Alice: “If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense.” Mad Hatter: “It's always tea-time.”
