A universe whose only claim to be believed in rests on the validity of inference must not start telling us the inference is invalid.
C. S. LewisJoy bursts in our lives when we go about doing the good at hand and not trying to manipulate things and times to achieve joy.
C. S. LewisOne of the marks of a certain type of bad man is that he cannot give up a thing himself without wanting every one else to give it up. That is not the Christian way. An individual Christian may see fit to give up all sorts of things for special reasons--marriage, or meat, or beer, or the cinema; but the moment he starts saying the things are bad in themselves, or looking down his nose at other people who do use them, he has taken the wrong turning.
