Or You Wouldn't Have Come Here




Alice tried
another question.
"What sort
of people
live about here?"
"In THAT
direction,"
the Cat said,
waving its
right paw,
"lives a Hatter.
And in
THAT direction,"
waving the
other paw,
"lives a
March Hare.
Visit either
you like.
They're both mad."
"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat. "We're all mad here.
I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

--Lewis Carroll (from "Alice In Wonderland")
