We shall draw nearer to God, not by trying to avoid the sufferings inherent in all loves, but by accepting them and offering them to Him; throwing away all defensive armour. If our hearts need to be broken, and if He chooses this as the way in which they should break, so be it.
C. S. LewisHoly places are dark places. It is life and strength, not knowledge and words, that we get in them. Holy wisdom is not clear and thin like water, but thick and dark like blood.
C. S. LewisI never see why we should do anything unless it is either a duty or a pleasure! Life's short enough without filling up hours unnecessarily
C. S. Lewis
