The following sentence is true.
"'Take some more tea,' the March hare said to Alice, very earnestly.
"'Take some more tea,' the March hare said to Alice, very earnestly.
'I've had nothing yet,' Alice replied in an offended tone, 'so I can't take more.'
'You mean you can't take less,' said the Hatter. 'It's very easy to take more than nothing.'"
(Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)
Lets look at this Shall we?
This bends what you think, and it may have more behind it than one would see right away.
First the March is saying this earnestly which means that he is not trying to deceive Alice. This implies that this form of thinking is normal and natural to him. As this is a bent form of though you can draw from this that he is somewhat off the deep end, tainted. Alice however does not think this way, as proved when she replies that she cant take more, she is pure, unknowing and untainted. Now as the March is not trying to deceive her, this implies that those who have been tainted try to taint those around them without knowing it, they are just acting 'normal' in a 'strange' environment. When Alice says that she has had nothing yet this also proves Alice is the incarnation of purity. The Hatter who is also off than tells Alice that she cant take less but it is very easy to take more than nothing. Here the Hatter is warping Alice's thought, this is changing the subject as well.
Though it maybe it was never been about the tea and rather about contorting the mind of a pure being.
The previous sentence is false.
