“Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad." "How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice. "You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here.” —Alice in Wonderland.

From David Palmer: ======================================================== 'It is a long tail, certainly said Alice, looking down with wonder at the Mouse's tail; 'but why do you call it sad?' And she kept on puzzling about it while the Mouse was speaking, so that her idea of the tale was something like this:- 'Fury said to a mouse, That he met in the house, "Let us both go to law: I will prosec- cute you -- Come, I'll take no de- nial: We must have the trial; For really this morn- ing I've nothing to do." Said the mouse to the cur, "Such a trial, dear sir, With no jury or judge, would be wast- ing our breath." "I'll be judge, I'll be jury," said cun- ning old Fury; "I'll try the whole cause, and con- demn you to death" ======================================================== ------------------------------------------------
