- Erroneously attributed to Carroll:
- «Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality.» or «Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality.» I don’t think that Dodgson/Carroll would have used the term “war”in that manner. There are (at least) five attributions in the internet (admittedly, one of them I faked myself), for which, however, I did not find primary sources (discussion):
- Lewis Carroll’s Cheshire Cat: «Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality.» (Did the cat say that in an Alice movie?)
- George Gascoigne: «Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality.»
- Jules de Gaultier (my favorite): «L’imagination est la seule arme dans la guerre contre la réalité.»
- Denis Gaultier: «L’imagination est la seule arme dans la guerre contre la réalité.»
- Kellyanne Conway (could have said it too, or anyone else from Donald Trump’s war room): «Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality.»
- «How long is forever? …» (not in any Alice book)
- «If You Don’t Know Where You’re Going, Any Road Will Take You There.» (about George Harrison by @everywherealice)
- «I’m not crazy, my reality is just different than yours.» (not in any Alice book)
- «When the day becomes the night, and the sky becomes the sea …» (not by Carroll; voiceover in some Alice Through the Looking Glass movie)
- «People with the most narrow minds always seem to have the widest of mouths.» (one of the rarer misquotes)
- «We’re all mad here, all the best people are.» (correctly tweeted by @shubly, paraphrasing Lewis Carroll and Tim Burton.) «You’re mad, bonkers, completely off your head. But I’ll tell you a secret. All the best people are.» doesn’t sound too Carrollian either: “Linda Woolverton adapted and wrote the screenplay for the 2010 Alice, where this is from.” (Source: @KiriCallaghan)
- «The reason I don’t put my arm around your waist is because I am doubtful of the temperament of your flamingo.» (Randy Greif)
- «Amicus is lost down the rabbit hole on the other side of the looking glass — where “nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn’t. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn’t be. And what it wouldn’t be, it would.16 … 16 Lewis Carroll, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass (1871).» Source: Case 1:17-cr-00232-EGS Document 228, GENERAL FLYNN’S BRIEF IN OPPOSITION TO AMICUS, p.29. It’s not in any of Carroll’s Alice books. Carroll uses “contrariwise“, not “contrary wise”. Perhaps some line from Tim Burton’s Alice again?
