More quotes by C. S. Lewis
To what will you look for help if you will not look to that which is stronger than yourself?
C. S. Lewis
Each new power won by man is a power over man as well. Each advance leaves him weaker as well as stronger.
C. S. Lewis
Of all bad men religious bad men are the worst.
C. S. Lewis
Failures are finger posts on the road to achievement.
C. S. Lewis
We might think that God wanted simply obedience to a set of rules: whereas He really wants people of a particular sort.
C. S. Lewis
We have not long to live in any event. Let us spend what is left in seeking the unpeopled world behind the sunrise.
C. S. Lewis
The most intense joy, lies not in the having, but in the desire, Delight that never fades, bliss that is eternal, Is only your, when what you most desire, is just out of reach...Anthony Hopkins, from the movie Shadowlands, where he plays C.S. Lewis
C. S. Lewis
When we want to be something other than the thing that God wants us to be, we must be wanting what, in fact, will not make us happy...whether we like it or not, God intends to give us what we need, not what we now think we want. Once more, we are embarrassed by the intolerable compliment, by too much love, not too little.
C. S. Lewis
If there's anyone who can appear before Aslan without their knees knocking, they're either braver than most, or else just silly.
C. S. Lewis
You people have no imagination!
C. S. Lewis
Because we love something else more than this world, we love even this world more than those who know no other.
C. S. Lewis
You cannot go on 'explaining away' for ever: you will find that you have explained explanation itself away. You cannot go on 'seeing through' things for ever. The whole point of seeing through something is to see something through it.
C. S. Lewis
Evil comes from the ABUSE of free will
C. S. Lewis
Life isn't all fricasseed frogs and eel pie.
C. S. Lewis
Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.
C. S. Lewis
We may not be able to get certainty, but we can get probability, and half a loaf is better than no bread.
C. S. Lewis
Only real risk passes the reality of faith.
C. S. Lewis
Holy places are dark places. It is life and strength, not knowledge and words, that we get in them. Holy wisdom is not clear and thin like water, but thick and dark like blood.
C. S. Lewis
If we only have the will to walk, then God is pleased with our stumbles.
C. S. Lewis
The unhistorical are usually, without knowing it, enslaved to a fairly recent past.
C. S. Lewis
