C. S. Lewis
Image
Now God designed the human machine to run on Himself. He Himself is the fuel our spirits were designed to burn, or the food our spirits were designed to feed on. There is no other.

As long as this deliberate refusal to understand things from above, even where such understanding is possible, continues, it is idle to talk of any final victory over materialism.
C. S. Lewis
Image
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.

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
Image
I think earth, if chosen instead of Heaven, will turn out to have been, all along, only a region in Hell and earth, if put second to Heaven, to have been from the beginning a part of Heaven itself.

When golden moments come, when God enables one really to pray without words, who but a fool would reject the gift?
C. S. Lewis
Image
Precisely because we cannot predict the moment, we must be ready at all moments.
C. S. Lewis
Image
Thus we have now for many centuries triumphed over nature to the extent of making certain secondary characteristics of the male (such as the beard) disagreeable to nearly all the females—and there is more in that than you might suppose.
C. S. Lewis
Image
It is only our bad temper that we put down to being tired or worried or hungry we put our good temper down to ourselves.
C. S. Lewis
Image
Excess of love, did ye say? There was no excess, there was defect. She loved her son too little, not too much. If she had loved him more there'd be no difficulty.
C. S. Lewis
Image
Don't bother too much about your feelings. When they are humble, loving, brave, give thanks for them when they are conceited, selfish, cowardly, ask to have them altered. In neither case are they you, but only a thing that happens to you. What matters is your intentions and your behavior
