It is safe to tell the pure in heart that they shall see God, for only the pure in heart want to.
C. S. LewisA faith in culture is as bad as a faith in religion; both expressions imply a turning away from those very things which culture and religion are about. Culture as a collective name for certain very valuable activities is a permissible word; but culture hypostatized, set up on its own, made into a faith, a cause, a banner, a platform, is unendurable. For none of the activities in question cares a straw for that faith or cause. It is like a return to early Semitic religion where names themselves were regarded as powers.
C. S. LewisMorality, like numinous awe, is a jump; in it, man goes beyond anything that can be 'given' in the facts of experience.
