C. S. Lewis
I wish we didn't live in a world where buying and selling things seems to have become almost more important than either producing or using them.
C. S. Lewis
Fine feelings, new insights, greater interest in ʿreligionʾ mean nothing unless they make our actual behavior better.
C. S. Lewis
Nothing that you have not given away will ever be really yours.
C. S. Lewis

C. S. Lewis
When we lose one blessing, another is often most unexpectedly given in its place.
C. S. Lewis
