Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;

They can take tomorrow and the plans we made
They can take the music that we'll never play
All the broken dreams, take everything

"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "Which is to be master---that's all."
Alive was too much puzzled to say anything, so after a minute Humpty Dumpty began again. "They've a temper, some of them---particularly, verbs, they're the proudest---adjectives you can do anything with, but not verbs---however, I can manage the whole lot! Impenetrability! That's what I say!

I am not asking anyone to accept Christianity if his best reasoning tells him that the weight of the evidence is against it.
