Of Course God does not conside...

Of Course God does not consider you hopeless. If He did, He would not be moving you to seek Him (and He obviously is)... Continue seeking Him with seriousness. Unless He wanted you, you would not be wanting Him.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

I sometimes think that shame, ...

I sometimes think that shame, mere awkward, senseless shame, does as much towards preventing good acts and straightforward happiness as any of our vices can do.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

Affection would not be affecti...

Affection would not be affection if it was loudly and frequently expressed; to produce it in public is like getting your household furniture out for a move. It did very well in its place, but it looks shabby or tawdry or grotesque in the sunshine.

The world does not need more Christian literature. What it needs is more Christians writing good literature.

Man is to be understood only in his relationship to God.

Youth and age touch only the surface of our lives.

I never fully understood it till my friend Professor Tolkien asked me the very simple question, 'What class of men would you expect to be most preoccupied with, and hostile to, the idea of escape?' and gave the obvious answer: jailers.

If we are any good we must always be working towards the moment at which our Pupils are fit to become our Critics & Rivals

Jesus produced mainly three effects: hatred, terror, adoration. There was no trace of people expressing mild approval.

You can't really study people; you can only get to know them.

Your people eat dry and tasteless flesh but it is off plates as smooth as ivory and as round as the sun.

To move with the times is, of course, to go where all times go.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

Post-Christian man is not the ...

Post-Christian man is not the same as Pre-Christian man. He is as far removed as virgin is from widow: there is nothing in common except want of a spouse: but there is a great difference between a spouse-to-be and a spouse lost.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

No one returns from Christiani...

No one returns from Christianity to the same state he was before Christianity but into a worse state: the difference between a pagan and an apostate is the difference between an unmarried woman and an adulteress. For faith perfects nature but faith lost corrupts nature. Therefore many men of our time have lost not only the supernatural light but also the natural light which pagans possessed.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

Goodness is, so to speak, itse...

Goodness is, so to speak, itself; badness is only spoiled goodness. And there must be something good first before it can be spoiled.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

Most of us need the crutch at ...

Most of us need the crutch at times; but of course it is idiotic to use the crutch when our own legs (our own loves, tastes, habits etc.) can do the journey on their own.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

One is sometimes glad not to be a great theologian; one might easily mistake it for being a good Christian.

I came alive when I started loving you.

But as for Aslan himself, the ...

But as for Aslan himself, the Beavers and the children didn't know what to do or say when they saw him. People who have not been in Narnia sometimes think that a thing cannot be good and terrible at the same time. If the children had ever thought so, they were cured of it now. For when they tried to look at Aslan's face they just caught a glimpse of the golden mane and the great, royal, solemn, overwhelming eyes; and then they found they couldn't look at him and went all trembly.
