Remember that rabbit-proof fencing you told me about? You get that at a hardware store or is it special order?

Lewis Carroll

Pretty great view. You think they’d do something about the sharks.

Lewis Carroll

Turns out rolling your eyes in a bar when ‘Land Down Under’ plays is like someone belching during the Star Spangled Banner in America.

Lewis Carroll

Oh, yeah, that goatee is really unattractive. That definitely belongs on a much fatter man.

Lewis Carroll

Are you saying that you need an attorney? For what? As far as I know, being a dick isn’t against the law in any country.

Lewis Carroll

I don’t need to look at your primal, white-hot, mutant pirate eyes, big guy. Just forget that I’m there, and I’ll try to block out the fact that I ever met you. Basically we’ll just act like we do every day.

Lewis Carroll

Are you referring to the day you instructed me to ‘follow the white rabbit,’ plied me with absinthe and brownies, and tried to have your way with me? Didn’t take long for you to lose your romantic streak, did it?

Lewis Carroll

Oh, Alice, you haven’t even had a taste of my romantic streak yet. And when the time’s right I don’t think I’ll have to ‘try’ to have my way with you. I just WILL.

Lewis Carroll

Oh, and Mr. Montgomery? I think I counted about four dozen important-sounding words and almost no substance at all in that explanation. I don’t think you should close the door on your diplomatic career entirely.

Lewis Carroll

Alice, I am the game, and trust me: you don’t want to play me.

Lewis Carroll

Lewis Carroll

You know what they say, Queenie: ALWAYS bet like you have a pair.

Lewis Carroll

I look around briefly at the other players like I always do before a game. Other than Queenie, Bill, and Talon, I don’t know any of them (and I don’t care enough about them to know them). But if there’s going to be any cordiality, any forced po...

Lewis Carroll

Lewis Carroll

Well, Faye, dear, I’m sure Harlow’s sorry she didn’t think to ask if you’d been eaten by a shark. That’s totally on her.

Lewis Carroll

By the way, don’t thank me for saving you, thank the lifeguards. If it was up to me, I would’ve just carried you off to the building by the boardwalk that said SURGERY. I’m sorry, but there’s a big difference between a family doctor treating ...

Lewis Carroll

I think I can say with confidence that it’s a lot funnier if you haven’t actually been attacked by a shark.

Lewis Carroll

Are we turning back? Because if you’re just trying to solve my post-traumatic stress problem by exposing me to rock sharks until I’m desensitized, trust me—that ship has sailed.

Lewis Carroll
