Carroll

Famous quotes containing the word carroll:

“As one who strives a hill to climb,
Who never climbed before:
Who finds it in a little time,
Grow every moment less sublime,
And votes the thing a bore:”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

“If you address a ghost as “Thing!”
Or strike him with a hatchet,
He is permitted by the King
To drop all formal parleying—
And then you’re sure to catch it!”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

“To the horror of all who were present that day,
He uprose in full evening dress,
And with senseless grimaces endeavoured to say
What his tongue could no longer express.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
