"I don't much care where."
"Then it doesn't much matter which way you go."
"…so long as I get somewhere."
"Oh, you're sure to do that, if only you walk long enough."
"But I don't want to go among mad people."
"Oh, you can't help that. We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?
"You must be. Or you wouldn't have come here.
"And how do you know that you're mad?"
"To begin with, a dog's not mad. You grant that?"
"I suppose so"
"Well, then, you see, a dog growls when it's angry, and wags its tail when it's pleased. Now I growl when I'm pleased, and wag my tail when I'm angry. Therefore I'm mad."
"It's not fair!" You say that so often, I wonder which is your base of comparison!
With risks untold, and hardships unnumbered, I have made my way through the Goblin city... My will is as strong as yours, my kingdom is as great. You have no power over me!
