Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

“Alice: Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?
The Cheshire Cat: That depends a good deal on where you want to get to.
Alice: I don't much care where.
The Cheshire Cat: Then it doesn't much matter which way you go.
Alice: ...So long as I get somewhere.
The Cheshire Cat: Oh, you're sure to do that, if only you walk long enough.”
Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

“Delle persone speciali noti soprattutto l'assenza; dei sorrisi, dei tocchi, della maniera di darti felicità in un attimo.”
