23 Quotes To Remember From 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'

Lewis Carroll was a man of many talents. He was an English teacher, a mathematician, logician, a deacon and even a photographer. Carroll's story "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" took us off to a world unfamiliar to our own. A world where flowers and rabbits talk, where everyone is "mad," there is an evil queen, a cat and a caterpillar give riddles and much, much more. Alice took us on a unique and wonderfully mad adventure with her and reminded us all to believe and trust in our selves, magic and imagination. Any time you are needing to be reassured about magic, adventure and believing in oneself, be sure to read these "Alice in Wonderland" quotes.


1. “'Begin at the beginning,' the King said, very gravely, 'and go on till you come to the end: then stop.'”

2. “Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”

3. “Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"

"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”

4. “Curiouser and curiouser!”

5. “If everybody minded their own business, the world would go around a great deal faster than it does.”

6. “Have I gone mad?

"I'm afraid so, but let me tell you something, the best people usually are.”

7. Alice: "How long is forever?"

White Rabbit: "Sometimes, just one second.”

8. “Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality.”

9. “I wonder if I've been changed in the night. Let me think. Was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I'm not the same, the next question is 'Who in the world am I?' Ah, that's the great puzzle!”

10. “How puzzling all these changes are! I'm never sure what I'm going to be, from one minute to another.”

11. "It's always tea time.”

12. “Why is a raven like a writing desk?”

13. “We're all mad here. Im mad. You're mad.”

14. “Look after the senses and the sounds will look after themselves.”

15. “Which way you ought to go depends on where you want to get to...”

16. “What a strange world we live in."

17. “Who are you?”

18. “Keep your temper."

19. "I don't see how he can ever finish, if he doesn't begin.”

20. “'If you knew Time as well as I do,’ said the Hatter, ‘you wouldn’t talk about wasting it.'"

21. “If you drink much from a bottle marked 'poison,' it is almost certain to disagree with you, sooner or later.”

22. “Flamingos and mustard both bite. And the moral of that is -- 'Birds of a feather flock together.'"

23. “You know what the issue is with this world? Everyone wants some magical solution to their problem and everyone refuses to believe in magic.”

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
