Lewis Carroll Quote
I don't know what you mean by 'glory,' Alice said. Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. Of course you don't—till I tell you. I meant 'there's a nice knock-down argument for you!' But 'glory' doesn't mean 'a nice knock-down argument', Alice objected. When I use a word, Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.
