C. S. Lewis
Reason is the natural order of truth but imagination is the organ of meaning.
C. S. Lewis
I#pray because the need flows out of me all the time-walking and sleeping. It does not change # God - it changes me.
C. S. Lewis
There are a dozen views about everything until you know the answer. Then there's never more than one.
C. S. Lewis
Getting over a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars. You have to let go at some point in order to move forward.
C. S. Lewis
Remember He is the artist and you are the picture. You can’t see it, you can't see your true self. So quietly submit to be painted.
C. S. Lewis
The beauty of life, is that you don't have to be modernly beautiful to live it.
C. S. Lewis
Everyone who believes in God at all believes that he knows what you and I are going to do tomorrow.
C. S. Lewis

C. S. Lewis
We have failed to practise ourselves the kind of behaviour we expect from other people.
C. S. Lewis
For in grief nothing 'stays put.' One keeps on emerging from a phase, but it always recurs. Round and round. Everything repeats. Am I going in circles, or dare I hope I am on a spiral?
C. S. Lewis
Some people feel guilty about their anxieties and regard them as a defect of faith but they are afflictions, not sins. Like all afflictions, they are, if we can so take them, our share in the passion of Christ.
C. S. Lewis
A moderately bad man knows he is not very good: a thoroughly bad man thinks he is alright. This is common sense really. You understand sleep when you are awake, not well you are sleeping.
C. S. Lewis
It is in some ways more troublesome to track and swat an evasive wasp than to shoot, at close range, a wild elephant. But the elephant is more troublesome if you miss.
C. S. Lewis
You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.
C. S. Lewis
God has paid us the intolerable compliment of loving us, in the deepest, most tragic, most inexorable sense.
C. S. Lewis
All get what they want they do not always like it.
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
The very man who has argued you down, will sometimes be found, years later, to have been influenced by what you said
C. S. Lewis
