I HAVE tasted eggs, certainly,' said Alice, who was a very truthful child; 'but little girls eat eggs quite as much as serpents do, you know.' 'I don't believe it,' said the Pigeon; 'but if they do, why then they're a kind of serpent, that's all I can say.

"I have tasted eggs, certainly," Alice remarked, emphasizing her honesty, and suggesting that girls eat eggs just as much as serpents do. This highlights her straightforward nature and the playful way she compares different creatures.

The Pigeon responds skeptically, disbelieving Alice's statement butentertaining the idea that if girls eat eggs, they might be considered a kind of serpent. This exchange showcases the whimsical and imaginative dialogue typical of Lewis Carroll's story, blending imagination with humor.
