According to Alice—that’s Alice in Wonderland—“What is the use of a book without pictures or conversations?”
That’s what Alice had to say before she fell down the Rabbit-Hole…
“Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, ‘What’s the use of a book,” thought Alive, “without pictures or conversations?’ ”
