C. S. Lewis
Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.

C. S. Lewis
The only way to drive out bad culture is to create good culture. We need to recognize that artistic talent is a gift from the Lord - and that developing those talents is the only way to create good culture.
C. S. Lewis
If and when a horror turns up you will then be given Grace to help you. I don't think one is usually given it in advance. Give us our daily bread (not an annuity for life) applies to spiritual gifts too the little daily support for the daily trial. Life has to be taken day by day and hour by hour.
C. S. Lewis
