“Ysee its sort of a game with me. Its whole object is to prove that two plus two equals four. That seems to make sense, but youd be surprised at the number of people who try to stretch it to five.”

“We tried pathetic appeals to the wandering waiters, who told us they are coming, Sir in a soothing toneand we tried stern remonstrance, & they then said they are coming, Sir in a more injured tone; & after all such appeals they retired into their dens, and hid themselves behind sideboards and dish-covers, still the chops came not. We agreed that of all virtues a waiter can display, that of a retiring disposition is quite the least desirable.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
