God, who foresaw your tribulation, has specially armed you to go through it, not without pain but without stain.
C. S. Lewis...we sacrifice other species to our own not because our own has any objective metaphysical privilege over others, but simply because it is ours. It may be very natural to have this loyalty to our own species, but let us hear no more from the naturalists about the "sentimentality" of anti-vivisectionists. If loyalty to our own species - preference for man simply because we are men - is not sentiment, then what is?
C. S. LewisThe world is so much larger than I thought. I thought we went along paths--but it seems there are no paths. The going itself is the path.
C. S. LewisPeople blush at praise--not only praise of their bodies, but praise of anything that is theirs.
C. S. LewisThe Christian idea of marriage is based on Christ's words that a man and wife are to be regarded as a single organism - for that is what the words 'one flesh' would be in modern English. And the Christians believe that when He said this He was not expressing a sentiment but stating a fact - just as one is stating a fact when one says that a lock and its key are one mechanism, or that a violin and a bow are one musical instrument.
