Tea, books, and stories
“'If you knew Time as well as I do," said the Hatter, "you wouldn't talk about wasting it. It's him." But it turns out that the Hatter has quarrelled with Time and now they are stuck: “'It's always six o'clock now … it's always tea-time, and we've no time to wash the things between whiles."
- Lewis Carroll (Alice in Wonderland)
