Cs Lewis Quotes


'You come of the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve,' said Aslan. 'And that is both honor enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth. Be content.' - CS Lewis


When you come to knowing God, the initiative lies on His side. If He does not show Himself, nothing you can do will enable you to find Him. And, in fact, He shows much more of Himself to some people than to others...not because He has favourites, but because it is impossible for Him to show Himself to a man whose whole mind and character are in the wrong condition. Just as sunlight, though it has no favourites, cannot be reflected in a dusty mirror as clearly as in a clean one. - CS Lewis

We're not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us; we are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be. - CS Lewis


We regard God as an airman regards his parachute; it's there for emergencies but he hopes he'll never have to use it. - CS Lewis
