The first thing to get clear about Christian morality between man and man is that in this department Christ did not come to teach any brand new morality. The Golden Rule of the New Testament (Do as you would be done by) is a summing up of what everyone, at bottom, had always known to be right.

Man's conquest of Nature turns out, in the moment of its consummation, to be Nature's conquest of Man.

We know nothing of religion here: we only think of Christ.

Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.

And that is enough to raise your thoughts to what may happen when the redeemed soul, beyond all hope and nearly beyond belief, learns at last that she has pleased Him whom she was created to please. There will be no room for vanity then. She will be free from the miserable illusion that it is her doing. With no taint of what we should now call self-approval she will most innocently rejoice in the thing that God has made her to be, and the moment which heals her old inferiority complex forever will also drown her pride… Perfect humility dispenses with modesty.

I am in love and out of it I will not go.

Edmund, give a special goodbye to Trumpkin for me. He's been a brick.
