“Peter did not feel very brave; indeed, he felt he was going to be sick. But that made no difference to what he had to do.”

C.S. Lewis

“The man who truly and disinterestedly enjoys any one thing in the world, for its own sake, and without caring two-pence what other people say about it, is by that very fact forewarmed against some of our subtlest modes of attack.”

C.S. Lewis

“I gave in, and admitted that God was God.”

C.S. Lewis

“God has not been trying an experiment on my faith or love in order to find out their quality. He knew it already. It was I who didn't. In this trial He makes us occupy the dock, the witness box, and the bench all at once. He always knew that my temple was a house of cards. His only way of making me realize the fact was to knock it down.”

C.S. Lewis

“Be comforted, small one, in your smallness. He lays no merit on you. Receive and be glad.”

C.S. Lewis

“But what manner of use would it be ploughing through that darkness?' asked Drinian. Use?' replied Reepicheep. 'Use, Captain?' If you mean by filling our bellies or our purses, I confess it will be no use at all. So far as I know we did not set sail to look for things useful but to seek honour and adventures. And here is as great an adventure as I have ever heard of, and here, if we turn back, no little impeachment of all our honours.”

C.S. Lewis

“It is a very funny thing that the sleepier you are, the longer you take about getting to bed.”

C.S. Lewis

“In Science we have been reading only the notes to a poem; in Christianity we find the poem itself.”

C.S. Lewis

“It is safe to tell the pure in heart that they shall see God, for only the pure in heart want to.”

C.S. Lewis

“You can begin as if nothing had ever gone wrong. White as snow.”

C.S. Lewis

“To enter heaven is to become more human than you ever succeeded in being on earth; to enter hell, is to be banished from humanity.”

C.S. Lewis

“The man who is contented to be only himself, and therefore less a self, is in prison. My own eyes are not enough for me, I will see through those of others. Reality, even seen through the eyes of many, is not enough. I will see what others have invented. Even the eyes of all humanity are not enough. I regret that the brutes connot write books. Very gladly would I learn what face things present to a mouse or a bee; more gladly still would I perceive the olfactory world charged with all the information and emotion it carries for a dog. Literary experience heals the wound, without undermining the privilege, of individuality... in reading great literature I become a thousand men and yet remain myself. Like the night sky in the Greek poem, I see with a myriad of eyes, but it is still I who see. Here, as in worship, in love, in moral action, and in knowing, I transcend myself; and am never more myself than when I do.”

C.S. Lewis

“Surely what a man does when he is taken off his guard is the best evidence for what sort of man he is.”

C.S. Lewis

“If war is ever lawful, then peace is sometimes sinful.”

C.S. Lewis

“Who are you?' One who has waited long for you to speak.”

C.S. Lewis
