Wonderland
/ˈwəndərˌland/
noun
O mother, mother love is blind, And all the world’s a wonderland, And in the garden of your mind, I see the light of God’s own hand. – poem by Robert Louis Stevenson
1. a place that excites admiration Today the traveler on the Nile enters a wonderland at whose gates rise the colossal pyramids of which he has had visions perhaps from earliest childhood.
– James Henry Breasted (1865 – 1935)
2. an imaginary place of delicate beauty or magical charm For me, science is already fantastical enough…unlocking the secrets of nature with fundamental physics or cosmology or astrobiology leads you into a wonderland compared with which beliefs in things like alien abductions pale into insignificance.
– Paul Davies (1946 – )
