In our own case we accept excuses too easily in other people's, we do not accept them easily enough.
C. S. Lewis
There is no other day. All days are present now. This moment contains all moments.
C. S. Lewis
I came alive when I started loving you.
C. S. Lewis
You would not call a man humane for ceasing to set mousetraps if he did so because he believed there were no mice in the house.
C. S. Lewis
“Who are you?” One who has waited long for you to speak.
C. S. Lewis
Our experience is coloured through and through by books and plays and the cinema, and it takes patience and skill to disentangle the things we have really learned from life for ourselves.
C. S. Lewis
'Being in love' first moved them to promise fidelity: this quieter love enables them to keep the promise.
C. S. Lewis
The absent are easily refuted.
C. S. Lewis

C. S. Lewis
Authority exercised with humility, and obedience accepted with delight are the very lines along which our spirits live.
C. S. Lewis
There is someone that I love even though I don't approve of what he does. There is someone I accept though some of his thoughts and actions revolt me. There is someone I forgive though he hurts the people I love the most. That person is......me.
C. S. Lewis
Something deep in the human heart breaks at the thought of a life of mediocrity.
C. S. Lewis
We come to Scripture not to learn a subject but to steep ourselves in a person.
C. S. Lewis
That thing is Freedom: the gift whereby ye most resemble your Maker and are yourselves part of eternal reality.
C. S. Lewis
It is wonderful what you can do when you have to.
C. S. Lewis
I know all about the despair of overcoming chronic temptation. It is not serious, provided self-offended petulance, annoyance at breaking records, impatience, etc., don't get the upper hand. No amount of falls will really undo us if we keep picking ourselves up each time...The only fatal thing is to lose one's temper and give up.
C. S. Lewis
The game is to have them all running about with fire extinguishers when there is a flood, and all crowding to that side of the boat which is already nearly gunwale under.
C. S. Lewis
You don’t think – not possibly – not as a mere hundredth chance – there might be things that are real though we can’t see them? … If there are souls, could there not be soul-houses?
C. S. Lewis
There is someone I accept even though I do not approve of all he does...and that someone is me
