Alice in Wonderland

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - is and will always remain one of my favourite books. I love how the story plays with logic and how it is one of the best examples of literary nonsense. This book is brilliant because it is full of puns, riddles, play upon words, anagrams, which can't be discovered all at once so the book can be read over and over again and will still be fascinating.

Some of my favourite quotes from 'Alice':

"If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?" - Alice

"No wonder you're late. Why, this watch is exactly two days slow." - Mad Hatter

Doorknob: "Read the directions and directly you will be directed in the right direction."

"Everything's got a moral, if only you can find it." - The Duchess

"Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop." - The King

"Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe."

"Well, I never heard it before, but it sounds uncommon nonsense." - The Mock Turtle

"We're all mad here." - The Cheshire Cat
