"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

"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master --
that's all."
-- Lewis Carrol, "Through the Looking Glass"

hand, if he were already in, I don't think they'd let him out."

"I don't understand," said the scientist, "why you lemmings all rush down
to the sea and drown yourselves."
"How curious," said the lemming. "The one thing I don't understand is why
you human beings don't."
