Quotes by Sinclair McKay (?)

“The only way to understand a land is to walk it. The only way to drink in its real meaning is to keep it firmly beneath one's feet … Only the walker can form the wider view”
― Sinclair McKay, Ramble on

“The creator of Alice in Wonderland was not just an expert in poetic nonsense; Lewis Carroll (or Charles Dodgson, to use his real name) was also an Oxford mathematician with a taste for symbolic logic and a distaste, in the sunset of the Victorian era, for new-fangled maths theories and practices.”
― Sinclair McKay, Bletchley Park Brainteasers: The bestselling quiz book full of puzzles inspired by Bletchley Park code breakers
