Carroll Myth

Famous quotes containing the words carroll and/or myth:

    There are three hundred and sixty-four days when you might get un-birthday presents ... and only one for birthday presents, you know.
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    That, of course, was the thing about the fifties with all their patina of familial bliss: A lot of the memories were not happy, not mine, not my friends’. That’s probably why the myth so endures, because of the dissonance in our lives between what actually went on at home and what went on up there on those TV screens where we were allegedly seeing ourselves reflected back.
    Anne Taylor Fleming (20th century)
