More quotes by C. S. Lewis
What I like about experience is that it is such an honest thing. You may take any number of wrong turnings but keep your eyes open and you will not be allowed to go very far before the warning signs appear. You may have deceived yourself, but experience is not trying to deceive you. The universe rings true wherever you fairly test it.
C. S. Lewis
It now seemed to me that all my other guesses had been only self-pleasing dreams spun out of my wishes, but now I was awake.

C. S. Lewis
What seem our worst prayers may really be, in God's eyes, our best. Those, I mean, which are least supported by devotional feeling. For these may come from a deeper level than feeling. God sometimes seems to speak to us most intimately when he catches us, as it were, off our guard.
C. S. Lewis
The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us.
C. S. Lewis
We cannot fully understand the relations of time and choice until we are beyond both.
C. S. Lewis
Be good, sweet maid, and don't forget that this involves being as clever as you can.
C. S. Lewis
The universe rings true whenever you fairly test it.
C. S. Lewis
There is no other day. All days are present now. This moment contains all moments.
C. S. Lewis
Even if there were pains in Heaven, all who understand would desire them.
C. S. Lewis
They tell me, Lord, that when I seem To be in speech with you. Since but one voice is heard, it
