Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?" "That depends a good deal on where you want to get to." "I don't much care where –" "Then it doesn't matter which way you go.
"Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?" is a question from Alice in Wonderland that reflects her uncertainty and desire for guidance. The response, "That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," emphasizes that knowing one's destination is crucial in choosing a path.
The reply, "I don't much care where," suggests indifference about the destination. The subsequent statement, "Then it doesn't matter which way you go," implies that without a clear goal, any direction is equally acceptable. This exchange highlights themes of purpose and decision-making in life's journey.
