Thoughts from Alice in Wonderland

Today's Photo: "A Quiet, Resting Place"
I'm currently reading Lewis Carroll's classic book Alice in Wonderland. I'm loving every page. I highly recommend it! The Disney cartoon is definitely based off of the book, but there are many differences. There are so many life truths explored within the pages of this novel! Here are some of my favorite words spoken by Alice:

"It's really dreadful," Alice muttered to herself, "the way all the creatures argue. It's enough to drive one crazy."

"But then," thought Alice, "shall I never get any older than I am now? That'll be a comfort, one way - never to be an old woman - but then - always to have lessons to learn! Oh, I shouldn't like that!"

"Come, there's no use in crying like that!" said Alice to herself, rather sharply. "I advise you to leave off this minute!" She generally gave herself very good advice (thought she very seldom followed it), and sometimes she scolded herself so severely as to bring tears into her eyes.
