More quotes by C. S. Lewis
Whether we like it or not, God intends to give us what we need, not what we now think we want
C. S. Lewis
And there, right in the middle of it, I find 'Forgive us our sins as we forgive those that sin against us.' There is no slightest suggestion that we are offered forgiveness on any other terms. It is made perfectly clear that if we do not forgive we shall not be forgiven.
C. S. Lewis
the Divine Nature wounds and perhaps destroys us merely by being what it is.
C. S. Lewis
I believe that there are too many practitioners in the church, who are not believers.
C. S. Lewis
Perfect humility dispenses with modesty.
C. S. Lewis
He cannot tempt to virtue as we do to vice. He wants them to learn to walk and must therefore take away His hand and if only the will to walk is really there He is pleased even with their stumbles.
C. S. Lewis
Pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pains. It is his megaphone to rouse a deaf world.
C. S. Lewis
A Christian is not a man who never goes wrong, but a man who is enabled to repent.
C. S. Lewis
Some people probably think of the Resurrection as a desperate last moment expedient to save the Hero from a situation which had got out of the Author's control.
C. S. Lewis
I believe Buddhism to be a simplification of Hinduism and Islam to be a simplification of Xianity.
C. S. Lewis
For in self-giving, if anywhere, we touch a rhythm not only of all creation but of all being.
C. S. Lewis
In worship, God imparts himself to us.
C. S. Lewis
The real trouble about the duty of forgiveness is that you do it with all your might on Monday and then find on Wednesday that it hasn't stayed put and all has to be done over again.
C. S. Lewis
Whenever a person dwells chiefly, or even frequently, on the faults of other people's religions, he is in a bad condition.
C. S. Lewis
It's so large It's the world dear, did you think it'd be small? smaller
C. S. Lewis
Death and resurrection are what the story is about and had we but eyes to see it, this has been hinted on every page, met us, in some disguise, at every turn, and even been muttered in conversations between such minor characters (if they are minor characters) as the vegetables.
C. S. Lewis
No natural feelings are high or low, holy or unholy, in themselves. They are all holy when God's hand is on the rein. They all go bad when they set up on their own and make themselves into false gods.
C. S. Lewis
Many thousands of people have had the experience of finding the first friend, and it is none the less a wonder as great a wonder (pace the novelists) as first love, or even greater.
C. S. Lewis
We know nothing of religion here: we only think of Christ.
C. S. Lewis
If we really think that home is elsewhere and that this life is a wandering to find home, why should we not look forward to the arrival?
C. S. Lewis
