Seek Unity and you will find neither Unity nor Truth.Seek the light of truth, and you will find Unity and Truth.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

The imagined beings have their...

The imagined beings have their insides on the outside; they are visible souls. And man as a whole, Man pitted against the universe, have we seen him at all till we see that he is like a hero in a fairy tale?

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

The process of living seems to...

The process of living seems to consist in coming to realize truths so ancient and simple that, if stated, they sound like barren platitudes.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

To interest is the first duty ...

To interest is the first duty of art; no other excellences will ever begin to compensate for failure in this.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

We have discovered that the sc...

We have discovered that the scheme of 'outlawing war' has made war more like an outlaw without making it less frequent and that to banish the knight does not alleviate the suffering of the peasant.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

You can put this another way b...

You can put this another way by saying that while in other sciences the instruments you use are things external to yourself (things like microscopes and telescopes), the instrument through which you see God is your whole self. And if a man's self is not kept clean and bright, his glimpse of God will be blurred - like the Moon seen through a dirty telescope. That is why horrible nations have horrible religions: they have been looking at God through a dirty lens.

You can't go against the grain...

You can't go against the grain of the universe and not expect to get splinters.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

Good and evil increase at comp...

Good and evil increase at compound interest. That's why the little decisions we make every day are of infinite importance.

When the whole world is running towards a cliff, he who is running in the opposite direction appears to have lost his mind.

Many things have gone wrong with the world that God made and... God insists, and insists very loudly, on our putting them right again

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

Men propound mathematical theo...

Men propound mathematical theorems in besieged cities, conduct metaphysical arguments in condemned cells, make jokes on the scaffold, discuss a new poem while advancing to the walls of Quebec, and comb their hair at Thermopylae. This is not panache; it is our nature.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

I enjoyed my breakfast this morning, and I think that was a good thing and do not think it was condemned by God. But I do not think myself a good man for enjoying it.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

Temperance referred not abstai...

Temperance referred not abstaining, but going the right length and no further...of course it may be the duty of a particular Christian, or any Christian, at a particular time, to abstain from strong drink, either because he is the sort of man who cannot drink at all without drinking too much, or because he wants to give the money to the poor, or because he is with people who are inclined to drunkenness and must not encourage them by drinking himself. But the whole point he is abstaining, for a good reason, from somethi

We must perpetually try to distinguish, however closely they get entwined by the subtle nature of the facts and by the secret importunity of our passions, those attitudes in a writer which we can honestly and confidently condemn as real evils, and those qualities in his writing which simply annoy and offend us as men of taste.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

We can never know that a piece...

We can never know that a piece of writing is bad unless we have begun by trying to read it as if it was very good and ended by discovering that we were paying the author an undeserved compliment.

Clive Lewis 2221 quotes

A promise must be about action...

A promise must be about actions: no one can promise to go on feeling a certain way.

Pure, spiritual, intellectual love shot form their faces like barbedlightning. It was so unlike the love we experience that its expressioncould easily be mistaken for ferocity.
