Alice: "Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"

Cheshire Cat:  "that depends a good deal on where you want to get to." 

Alice: "I don't much care where ..." 

Cheshire Cat: "Then it doesn't matter which way you go."

Alice: "—so long as I get SOMEWHERE ." 

Cheshire Cat: "Oh, you're sure to do that if you only walk long enough."
