Quote by Lewis Carroll

Summary

This quote from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland highlights the theme of having a clear sense of purpose and direction. The Cheshire cat's response to Alice's uncertainty about which road to take reinforces the idea that without a definite destination in mind, the choice of one road over another becomes insignificant. It suggests that knowing one's goals and aspirations is crucial for making meaningful decisions and progressing towards them.

If therefore my work is negative, irreligious, atheistic, let it be remembered that atheism -- at least in the sense of this work -- is the secret of religion itself; that religion itself, not indeed on the surface, but fundamentally, not in intention or according to its own supposition, but in its heart, in its essence, believes in nothing else than the truth and divinity of human nature.
