More quotes by C. S. Lewis
We have to be continually reminded of what we believe.
C. S. Lewis
It is better to forget about yourself altogether.
C. S. Lewis
Some have paid me an undeserved compliment by supposing that my Letters were the ripe fruit of many years' study in moral and ascetic theology. They forgot that there is an equally reliable, though less creditable, way of learning how temptation works.
C. S. Lewis
The story itself should force its moral upon you. You find out what the moral is by writing the story.
C. S. Lewis
Am I to understand,' said Reepicheep to Lucy after a long stare at Eustace, 'That this singularly discourteous person is under your Majesty's protection? Because, if not--
C. S. Lewis
Delight is incomplete until it is expressed.
C. S. Lewis
We are all fallen creatures and all very hard to live with.
C. S. Lewis
We reduce things to mere Nature in order that we may conquer them.
C. S. Lewis
Try to exclude the possibility of suffering which the order of nature and the existence of free-wills involve, and you find that you have excluded life itself
C. S. Lewis
When you are not feeling particularly friendly but know you ought to be, the best thing you can do, very often, is to put on a friendly manner and behave as if you were a nicer person than you actually are. And in a few minutes, as we have all noticed, you will be really feeling friendlier than you were.
C. S. Lewis
Perhaps the experience had been so complete that repetition would be vulgarity - like asking to hear the same symphony twice in a day.
C. S. Lewis
Those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
C. S. Lewis
Look for Christ and you will find Him, and with Him everything else thrown in
C. S. Lewis
A great deal of what is being published by writers in the religious tradition is a scandal and is actually turning people away from the church. The liberal writers who are continually accommodating and whittling down the truth of the Gospel are responsible.
C. S. Lewis
Put first things first and we get second things thrown in: put second things first & we lose both first and second things.
C. S. Lewis
All mortals tend to turn into the thing they are pretending to be. This is elementary
C. S. Lewis
The only safe rule is to give more than we can spare. Our charities should pinch and hamper us. If we live at the same level of affluence as other people who have our level of income, we are probably giving away too little.
C. S. Lewis
Man approaches God most nearly when he is in one sense least like God. For what can be more unlike than fullness and need, sovereignty and humility, righteousness and penitence, limitless power and a cry for help?
C. S. Lewis
You never know what you can do until you try, and very few try unless they have to.
C. S. Lewis
God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons that we could learn in no other way.
C. S. Lewis
