Lewis Carroll

« All quotes from this author
 

Lewis Carroll's humour is that of an educated man; it is fun indeed, but of the most refined and exotic. And that is why his books, popular as they are and as they deserve to be among children, can only be fully appreciated by grown-up readers.
--
Stuart Dodgson Collingwood, The Lewis Carroll Picture Book (1899) p. 4.
