The Cat only grinned when it saw Alice..."Cheshire-Puss," she began,
rather timidly..."Would you please tell me, please, which way I ought
to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to go to," said the Cat.
"Oh, I don't much care where-" said Alice.
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go," said the Cat."
"-so long as I get somewhere" said Alice.
"Oh, you're sure to do that," said the Cat, "if you only walk long
enough."
-- Lewis Caroll,
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
