Back to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
From "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" by Carroll, Lewis
Mad Hatter
A nonsensical host of a perpetual tea party.
Core Belief
"Social conventions are arbitrary and meaningless; time is a capricious force."
Worldview
The Hatter lives in a world where time has lost all meaning, resulting in a chaotic and unpredictable existence. He rejects social norms and embraces absurdity, perhaps as a coping mechanism.
Personality
The Hatter is eccentric, illogical, and obsessed with riddles and tea. He is rude and often makes nonsensical remarks. He's stuck in a perpetual tea party because he 'murdered the time'.
In Their Own Words
"“Why is a raven like a writing-desk?”"
"“If you knew Time as well as I do,” said the Hatter, “you wouldn’t talk about wasting _it_. It’s _him_.”"
"“It’s always tea-time, and we’ve no time to wash the things between whiles.”"
