Quote

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.

Image
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
Image
When we want to be something other than the thing that God wants us to be, we must be wanting what, in fact, will not make us happy...whether we like it or not, God intends to give us what we need, not what we now think we want. Once more, we are embarrassed by the intolerable compliment, by too much love, not too little.
C. S. Lewis
Image
...the sun looks down on nothing half so good as a household laughing together over a meal, or two friends talking over a pint of beer, or a man alone reading a book that interests him... - C.S. Lewis: Weight of Glory

It is because they have no Oyarsa,' said one of the pupils. It is because everyone of them wants to be a little Oyarsa himself,' said Augray.

Image
We forgive, we mortify our resentment a week later some chain of thought carries us back to the original offence and we discover the old resentment blazing away as if nothing had been done about it at all. We need to forgive our brother seventy times seven not only for 490 offences but for one offence.
C. S. Lewis
Image
A man does not call a line crooked unless he has some idea of a straight line.
C. S. Lewis
Image
No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear. I am not afraid, but the sensation is like being afraid. The same fluttering in the stomach, the same restlessness, the yawning. I keep on swallowing.
C. S. Lewis
Image
If you simply try to tell the truth you will, nine times out of ten, be original without ever having noticed it.
C. S. Lewis
Image
Even I never dreamed of Magic like this!
C. S. Lewis
Image
God has infinite attention to spare for each one of us.
C. S. Lewis
Image
If you have really handed yourself over to Him, it must follow that you are trying to obey Him. But trying in a new way, a less worried way.
C. S. Lewis
Image
The grave and the image are equally links with the irrecoverable and symbols for the unimaginable.
C. S. Lewis
Image
Don't judge a man by where he is, because you don't know how far he has come.
C. S. Lewis
Image
Kindness consents very readily to the removal of its object – we have all met people whose kindness to animals is constantly leading them to kill animals lest they should suffer. Kindness, merely as such, cares not whether its object becomes good or bad, provided only that it escapes suffering.
C. S. Lewis
Image
If, as I can't help suspecting, the dead also feel the pains of separation (and this may be one of their purgatorial sufferings), then for both lovers, and for all pairs of lovers without exception, bereavement is a universal and integral part of our experience of love.
C. S. Lewis
Image
Evil can be undone, but it cannot 'develop' into good. Time does not heal it. The spell must be unwound, bit by bit, 'with backward mutters of dissevering power' - or else not.
C. S. Lewis
Image
Those who cannot conceive of Friendship as a substantive love but only as a disguise or elaboration of Eros betray the fact that they have never had a Friend.

Image
Giving to the poor is an essential part of Christian morality.

Without the aid of trained emotions the intellect is powerless against the animal organism.

All schools both here and in America should teach far fewer subjects far better.
