【選詞片段】
Time: All is well. Yes?
Alice: I know you tried to warn me. But I didn’t listen. I’m sorry. I used to think Time was thief, stealing everything I loved. But I see now that you give before you take. And everyday is a gift. Every hour, every minute, every second.
Time: The fallen solider. I suppose you want me to fix it.
Alice: No, I want you to have it. He used to say that only thing worth doing was what we do for others. I think he would have liked you.
Time: It is said that time is a friend to no man. But I will remember you always. And please, do not come back.
Hatter: Alice, oh, Alice. You simply must come and meet my family. After all, you are the very person who saved them, aren’t you? We’re going to have so much fun together. But, of course, you have a family of your own, don’t you? Very important thing, a family. You only get the one.
Alice: Oh Hatter. I fear I may never see you again.
Hatter: My dear Alice. In the gardens of memory… the palace of dreams. That is where you and I will meet.
Alice: But a dream is not reality.
Hatter: Who’s to say which is which?
