More quotes by C. S. Lewis
God has infinite attention to spare for each one of us.
C. S. Lewis
If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. Dark would be without meaning.
C. S. Lewis
It is in the process of being worshipped that God communicates His presence to men.
C. S. Lewis
Your people eat dry and tasteless flesh but it is off plates as smooth as ivory and as round as the sun.
C. S. Lewis
Autumn is really the best of the seasons and I'm not sure that old age isn't the best part of life.
C. S. Lewis
But no one except Lucy knew that as it circled the mast it had whispered to her, Courage, dear heart, and the voice, she felt sure, was Aslan's, and with the voice a delicious smell breathed in her face.
C. S. Lewis
As long as he doesn't convert it into action, it does not matter how much a man thinks about his repentance.
C. S. Lewis
Talk to me about the truth of religion and I'll listen gladly. Talk to me about the duty of religion and I'll listen submissively. But don't come talking to me about the consolations of religion or I shall suspect that you don't understand.
C. S. Lewis
If God is Love, He is, by definition, something more than mere kindness.
C. S. Lewis
Poetry too is a little incarnation, giving body to what had been before invisible and inaudible.
C. S. Lewis
I believe that there are too many practitioners in the church, who are not believers.
C. S. Lewis
We treat our dogs as if they were almost human: that is why they really become almost human in the end.
C. S. Lewis
I think we must attack -- wherever we meet it -- the nonsensical idea that mutually exclusive propositions about God can both be true.
C. S. Lewis
I cannot understand how a man can appear in print claiming to disbelieve everything that he presupposes when he puts on the surplice. I feel it is a form of prostitution.
C. S. Lewis
If minds are wholly dependent on brains and brains on biochemistry, and biochemistry (in the long run) on the meaningless flux of the atoms, I cannot understand how the thought of those minds should have any more significance than the sound of the wind in the trees.
C. S. Lewis
It is very true. But even a traitor may mend. I have known one that did.
C. S. Lewis
In your world, I have another name. You should know me by it.
C. S. Lewis
All schools both here and in America should teach far fewer subjects far better.
C. S. Lewis
In your life you meet people. Some you never think about again. Some, you wonder what happened to them. There are some that you wonder if they ever think about you. And then there are some that you wish you never have to think about again. But you do.
C. S. Lewis
The only thing one can usually change in one's situation is oneself. And yet one can't change that either-only ask Our Lord to do so.
C. S. Lewis
