A great many people (not you) ...

A great many people (not you) do now seem to think that the mere state of being worried is in itself meritorious. I don't think it is. We must, if it so happens, give our lives for others: but even while we're doing it, I think we're meant to enjoy Our Lord and, in Him, our friends, our food, our sleep, our jokes, and the birds' song and the frosty sunrise.

Is any pleasure on Earth as great as a circle of Christian friends?

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

When we want to be something o...

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.

In the science, Evolution is a theory about changes; in the myth it is a fact about improvements.

The Glory of God, and, as our ...

The Glory of God, and, as our only means of glorifying Him, the salvation of human souls, is the real business of life.

Children are not a distraction from more important work. They are the most important work.

Whether we like it or not, God intends to give us what we need, not what we now think we want

Put first things first and second things are thrown in. Put second things first and you lose both first and second things.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

Most of us are not really appr...

Most of us are not really approaching the subject in order to find out what Christianity says; we are approaching it in the hope of finding support from Christianity for the views of our own party.

If only this toothache would go away, I could write another chapter on the problem of pain.

Why love if losing hurts so much? We love to know that we are not alone.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

Something of God... flows into...

Something of God... flows into us from the blue of the sky, the taste of honey, the delicious embrace of water whether cold or hot, and even from sleep itself.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

Human beings, all over the ear...

Human beings, all over the earth, have this curious idea that they ought to believe in a certain way, and can't really get rid of it.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

We do not want merely to see b...

We do not want merely to see beauty... we want something else which can hardly be put into words- to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it. That is why we have peopled air and earth and water with gods and goddesses, and nymphs and elves.

All joy... emphasizes our pilg...

All joy... emphasizes our pilgrim status; always reminds, beckons, awakens desire. Our best havings are wantings.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

I have learned now that while those who speak about one's miseries usually hurt, those who keep silence hurt more.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

You can't go on 'seeing throughЂќ things forever. The whole point of seeing through something is to see something through it. To 'see throughЂќ all things is the same as not to see.

Love is something more stern and splendid than mere kindness.

Though no one would want to be sold as a slave, it is perhaps even more galling to be a sort of utility slave whom no one will buy.

Love, in its own nature, demands the perfecting of the beloved.
