The proper motto is not Be good, sweet maid, and let who can be clever, but Be good sweet maid, and dont forget that this involves being as clever as you can. God is no fonder of intellectual slackers than any other slackers. – C.S. Lewis
Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point. – C.S. Lewis
Many things — such as loving, going to sleep, or behaving unaffectedly — are done worst when we try hardest to do them. – C.S. Lewis
It is Christ Himself, not the Bible, who is the true word of God. The Bible, read in the right spirit and with the guidance of good teachers, will bring us to Him. We must not use the Bible as a sort of encyclopedia out of which texts can be taken for use as weapons. – C.S. Lewis
