One example of a malapropism in "Alice in Wonderland" is when the Duchess says, "Take care of the sense, and the sounds will take care of themselves." This is a play on the phrase "Take care of the pence, and the pounds will take care of themselves," where the Word "sense" is substituted for "pence" to create a humorous twist.
