Quotation from: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

Written by: Lewis Carroll


`I've tried the roots of trees, and I've tried banks, and I've
tried hedges,' the Pigeon went on, without attending to her; `but
those serpents! There's no pleasing them!'


Alice was more and more puzzled, but she thought there was no
use in saying anything more till the Pigeon had finished.


`As if it wasn't trouble enough hatching the eggs,' said the
Pigeon; `but I must be on the look-out for serpents night and
day! Why, I haven't had a wink of sleep these three weeks!'
