“But I don’t want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked.
“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.”
This post was originally for Tim Burton’s 2010 Alice in Wonderland movie. Since then, that movie has come and gone, and even spawned a sequel. And while I was excited about this one…I was ultimately disappointed by it. But that’s me. Below you will find a lot more information on Alice in Wonderland in general. Enjoy.

…Who is this Alice Character?
If, for some reason, you don’t know what Alice in Wonderland is, or is about…then, well, I don’t know. Where did your childhood go? It’s basically a tale of fantasy and whimsy that has influenced the world and the people in it for over a century now. If you’re really unsure, just try the Wikipedia link. It will tell you everything you need to know, and then some.
For writer’s and other artistic types, Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is a treasure trove of ideas and inspiration, no matter what medium you create in. It’s also highly quotable and equally misquoted.
