愛麗絲在森林裡迷失方向,巧遇一隻總是面帶微笑的貓(Cheshire cat)
她問笑臉貓:『你可以告訴我,我該走哪條路嗎?』

笑臉貓回答愛麗絲:「這得看你想往哪裡去?」

『我並不太確定該往哪裡去,』 愛麗絲說。

於是笑臉貓說:「那麼,你選哪一條路都是一樣的。」


       Alice asked the Cheshire Cat, who was sitting in a tree, “What road do I take?"


       The cat asked, “Where do you want to go?”

“I don’t know,” Alice answered.

“Then,” said the cat, “it really doesn’t matter, does it?"
