Lewis Carroll Quote

A likely story indeed! said the Pigeon, in a tone of the deepest contempt. I've seen a good many little girls in my time, but never one with such a neck as that! No, no! You're a serpent; and there's no use denying it. I suppose you'll be telling me next that you never tasted an egg!I have tasted eggs, certainly, said Alice, who was a very truthful child; but little girls eat eggs quite as much as serpents do, you know.I don't believe it, said the Pigeon; but if they do, then they're a kind of serpent: that's all I can say.
