C. S. Lewis
The universe rings true whenever you fairly test it.
C. S. Lewis
Digory never spoke on the way back, and the others were shy of speaking to him. He was very sad and he wasn't even sure all the time that he had done the right thing but whenever he remembered the shining tears in Aslan's eyes he became sure.
C. S. Lewis
A sign of a culture that has lost its faith - Moral collapse follows upon spiritual collapse.
C. S. Lewis

Your real, new self (which is Christ's and also yours, and yours just because it is His) will not come as long as you are looking for it. It will come when you are looking for Him.
C. S. Lewis

C. S. Lewis
The only people who hate escapism are jailers.
C. S. Lewis
The heart never takes the place of the head: but it can, and should, obey it.
C. S. Lewis
Even if there were pains in Heaven, all who understand would desire them.
C. S. Lewis
We regard God as an airman regards his parachute it's there for emergencies but he hopes he'll never have to use it.
C. S. Lewis

C. S. Lewis
If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end, despair.
C. S. Lewis
God's love is not wearied by our sins & is relentless in its determination that we be cured at whatever cost to us or Him
C. S. Lewis
If anyone would like to acquire humility, I can, I think, tell him the first step. The first step is to realize that one is proud. And a biggish step, too. At least, nothing whatever can be done before it. If you think you are not conceited, it means that you are very conceited indeed.
C. S. Lewis
