Alice in Wonderland quotes

Page 3 of 4
[after the Queen of Hearts is hit in the head and covered in the tapestry]

Somebody's head IS GOING TO ROLL FOR THIS! [RRRRIP! Queen's face covered by jam, seeing that Alice must have done this] AH-HA!

[after throwing away the gavel and jam and stuffing her hands in her apron's pockets, which soon reveals there are parts of the mushroom]

The mushroom! [she quickly eats both parts]]

[yelling]

OFF WITH HER HE-------!!!!!!!!! [covers her mouth in shock as Alice is grown to the height of the courtroom]

Who's been painting my roses red? WHO'S BEEN PAINTING MY ROSES RED? /Who dares to taint / With vulgar paint / The royal flower bed? / For painting my roses red / Someone will lose his head.

Oh no, Your Majesty, please! It's all *his* fault!

Not me, your grace! The ace, the ace!

You?

No, two!

The deuce, you say?

Not me! The three!

That's enough! Off with their heads!

The Rose

Girls! We shall sing "Golden Afternoon". That's about all of us.

Tweedle Dee, Tweedle Dum
[singing together]

How do ya do and shake hands, shake hands, shake hands. How do ya do and shake hands and state your name and business. [both spoken]

Tweedle Dee, Tweedle Dum

That's manners!

Tweedle Dum

If you think we're waxworks, you ought to pay, you know.

Tweedle Dee

Contrariwise, if you think we're alive you ought to speak to us.

Tweedle Dum, Tweedle Dee

That's logic.

Her Imperial Highness, Her Grace, Her Excellency, Her Royal Majesty, the Queen of Hearts! [Crowd cheers] ... And the King.

Voice in crowd

Hooray!

We need a lazard with a liddle... a lad... can you help us?

Bill

At your service, gov'nor.

Dodo

Bill, my lad. Have you ever been down a chimney?

Bill

Why, gov'nor, I've been down more chimneys...

Dodo

Excellent, excellent. Now just hop down the chimney and pull that monster out of there.

Bill

Righto, gov'nor... Monster? Aaaaah!

Why, Mary Ann! What are you doing out here?

Mary Ann?

Don't just do something, stand there... Uh... no no! Go go! Go get my gloves! I'm late!

But late for what? That's just what I...

My gloves! [Blows trumpet] At once, do you hear!

Goodness. I suppose I'll be taking orders from Dinah next.

Your Majesty, members of the jury, loyal subjects... and the King... the prisoner at the bar stands accused of enticing Her Majesty, the Queen of Hearts, into a game of croquet, thereby and with malice of forethought, molesting, tormenting, and otherwise annoying our beloved...

Never mind all that! Get to the part where I lose my temper.

...Thereby causing the Queen to lose her temper.

[to Alice]

Now...are you ready for your sentence?

Sentence? But there has to be a verdict first...

Sentence first! Verdict afterwards.

But that just isn't the way...

[shouting]

All ways are...!

...Your ways, Your Majesty.

Yes, my child. [giggles] [yelling] OFF WITH HER---!!!

Consider, my dear. We called no witnesses. Couldn't we hear... maybe one or two, huh? Maybe...?

Ohhh, very well--- [yelling] BUT GET ON WITH IT!!!!!!!!!

Chorus
[ALICE in WONDERLAND In adaptation of LEWIS CARROL'S The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass COLOR BY TECHNICOLOR]

Alice in Wonderland

Male Chorus

How do you get to Wonderland?

Female Chorus

Over the hill or Underland
or just behind the tree
When clouds go rolling by

Male Chorus

They roll away and leave the sky

Female Chorus

Where is the land beyond the eye
That people cannot see?
Where can it be?

Male Chorus

Where do stars go
Where is the crescent moon?

Female Chorus

They must be somewhere in the sunny afternoon

Chorus

Alice in Wonderland

Female Chorus

Where is the path to Wonderland?

Chorus

Over the hill or here or there?
I wonder where...

[The Song's main title theme] [First Lines] [reading from a history book]

"... leaders, and had been of late much accustomed to usurpation and conquest. Edwin and Morcar, the Earls of Mercia and Northumbria, declared for him: and even Stigand..." Alice? [camera zooms out to show Alice sitting in a tree, playing with Dinah and making a chain of daisies]

Hmm? Oh, I'm listening.

"And even Stigand, the archbishop of Canterbury, agreed to meet with William and offer him the crown. William's conduct at first was moderate." [Alice laughs as her daisy crown falls on her sister's face]

Alice? Will you kindly pay attention to your history lesson?

I'm sorry, but how can one possibly pay attention to a book with no pictures in it?

My dear child, there are a great many good books in this world without pictures.

In this world, perhaps, but in my world, the books would be nothing but pictures.

Your world? Huh! What nonsense.

[getting inspiration]

Nonsense?

Once more, from the beginning.

[to her cat]

That's it, Dinah. If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrariwise, what it is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be it would. You see? [Dinah meows to her, shaking her head] In my world, you wouldn't say "meow". You'd say, "Yes, Miss Alice". [Dinah meows] Oh, but you would. You'd be just like people, Dinah. And all the other animals too. Why, in my world... Cats and rabbits / would reside in fancy little houses, / and be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers. / In a world of my own... / All the flowers / would have very extra special powers. / They would sit and talk to me for hours / when I'm lonely in a world of my own. / There'd be new birds, / lots of nice and friendly how-de-do birds. / Everyone would have a dozen bluebirds / within that world of my own. / I could listen to a babbling brook and hear a song that I could understand. / I keep wishing it could be that way / because my world would be a Wonderland.

[Alice reaches the door to escape from the mob] [tries to open the door]

D'oh! I'm - still locked, you know!

[in horror]

But the queen! I simply *must* get out!

[chuckles]

But you *are* outside.

[releases her grip on the Doorknob]

What?

[opens his mouth]

See for yourself. [Alice sees through his mouth and sees herself asleep with Dinah also sleeping on her lap by a tree in a beautiful meadow]

Why - why that's me! I'm asleep!

[shouting from a distance, advancing toward Alice along with a mob of other characters]

Don't let her get away! Off with her head!

[in terror, through the Doorknob's mouth]

Alice, wake up! Please, wake up, Alice!

[comes closer with the rest of the mob]

Off with her head!

Alice! Please, wake up, Alice! [as the mob draws nearer, the screen goes into swirling multicolor until it shows Alice sleeping by the tree]

[voiceover]

Alice! Alice! Alice!

[changes to her sister's]

Alice! Alice! Will you kindly pay attention and recite your lesson?

[waking up after escaping the mob]

Hm? Oh. Oh, uh, how doth the little crocodile improve each shining tail and pour the waters of the...

Alice, what *are* you talking about?

Oh. I'm sorry, but you see, the Caterpillar said...

Caterpillar? Oh, for goodness sakes. Alice, I... Oh, well. Come along, it's time for tea.

Do you want us both to lose our heads?!
