- March Hare: Have some more tea?
- Alice: I haven't had any yet, so I can't take more.
- March Hare: You mean you can't take less. It is very easy to take more than nothing.
- Alice: How can you go on talking so quietly with your head in a ditch?
- White Knight: What does it matter where my body happens to be? My mind goes on working all the same. In fact, I once invented a new pudding during the meat course.
- Alice: In time to have it cooked for the next course, hmmm? That was quick work!
- White Knight: Well, not the next course. In fact, I don't believe that pudding even was cooked.
- Alice: What did you mean it to be made of?
- White Knight: Well it began with blotting paper.
- Alice: That wouldn't be very nice, I'm afraid.
- White Knight: Not very nice alone, but imagine how good it would be mixed with other things such as gunpowder and sealing wax.
