Famous quotes containing the word alice:

    ““Who are you,” said the caterpillar.
    This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation. Alice replied, rather shyly, “I—I hardly know, Sir, just at present—at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have changed several times since then.””
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
