“That’s just what I complain of,” said Humpty Dumpty. “Your face is the same as everybody has⁠—the two eyes, so⁠—” (marking their places in the air with this thumb) “nose in the middle, mouth under. It’s always the same. Now if you had the two eyes on the same side of the nose, for instance⁠—or the mouth at the top⁠—that would be some help.”

“It wouldn’t look nice,” Alice objected. But Humpty Dumpty only shut his eyes and said “Wait till you’ve tried.”
