I just noticed.
The quote in Purest's signature is from Through the Looking Glass; the sequel to Alice in Wonderland.

Supposedly Lewis Carroll was high on opium when he wrote those books, which is why they're so weird.. xD

There's a sequel to Alice in Wonderland? I wonder why I've never read it. Maybe I should. Does it star Alice again?

It's surprising how most of the classic English storytellers of old, like Lewis Carrol, C.S Lewis and Tolkien, only have one or two major works which are known by practically everyone in the world, whilst the remainder of their works are either forgotten or only known to the literally devotees.
Until I looked it up in Wikipedia today, I didn't know what Through the Looking Glass was about.

» » [ It's not as happy and light as the Disney version, yes.
I only knew about it because we have both books as a set-kinda-thing on one of our bookshelves.
I also re-read them quite recently. P: ]

Mn, sin's new post style is nice.
@'elfy - I know I know~ it's rather sad. CS Lewis wrote a rather good book called The Screwtape Letters, really very wonderful indeed~ I saw a dramatic production a couple years ago.

Owie.*hurts*
My mum used that line from the Jabberwocky poem to make me sleep by 8.30 each night.And she read me Through the Looking-Glass too.John Tenniel's illustrations really creep me out.-shivers-
@niph:The Screwtape Letters?Makes you wonder if he was a frequent hardware shopper,doesn't it?
