Alice and the Cat "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." The Perfect World according to the Hatter "If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be." The Hatter to Alice and her reply: "Have I gone mad? You're entirely bonkers but I'll tell you a secret all the best people are" Problem solved.
