Youth and age touch only the surface of our lives.
C. S. Lewis
Badness cannot succeed even in being bad in the same way in which goodness is good. Goodness is, so to speak, itself: badness is only spoiled goodness. Evil is a parasite, not an original thing.
C. S. Lewis
We have a strange illusion that mere time cancels sin.
C. S. Lewis
We are...a Divine work of art, something that God is making...something with which He will not be satisfied until it has a certain character.
C. S. Lewis

C. S. Lewis

C. S. Lewis
Never exaggerate. Never say more than you really mean.
C. S. Lewis
Those who have nothing can share nothing those who are going nowhere can have no fellow-travellers.
C. S. Lewis
When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.
C. S. Lewis
I gave in, and admitted that God was God.
C. S. Lewis
What one must not do is to rule out the supernatural as the one impossible explanation.
C. S. Lewis
and the whole forest would give itself up to jollification for weeks on end.
C. S. Lewis
I daren't come and drink, said Jill. Then you will die of thirst, said the Lion. Oh dear! said Jill, coming another step nearer.I suppose I must go and look for another stream then. There is no other stream, said the Lion.
C. S. Lewis
We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us.
C. S. Lewis
