I always have this thing with alice in wonderland ever since i was a little girl. few weeks back i discovered that they're making a movie out of it. and johnny depp is acting. so yeah, SUPER excited :p
anyways, alice in wonderland and alice through the looking glass is probably one of my favourite books. tried reading it few years back when i was 12 i think, and gave up on it (coz it was quite heavy) then read it again few years after. Hey, try reading a book that is 150 years old language and the story doesnt really make sense. so it can get VERY confusing.
my favourite quote from this book is alice through the looking glass (chess board). is the part where the red queen, randomly grab alice and started running. running really fast! when they finally stop running, alice realise that they're still standing at the exact same spot
then she said,
"Well, in our country," said Alice, still panting a little, "you'd generally get to somewhere else — if you run very fast for a long time, as we've been doing."
Then queen reply:
"A slow sort of country!" said the Queen. "Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!"
if u apply that quote to the real world. it actually makes ALOT of sense. something worth for you guys and myself to think about.
P.s: the Character 'Alice' is actually the niece of the author, Lewis Carroll.. cool eh?
