That fierce imprisonment in the self is but the obverse of the self-giving which is absolute reality.
C. S. LewisWe 'have all we want' is a terrible saying when 'all' does not include God. We find God an interruption. As St. Augustine says somewhere, 'God wants to give us something, but cannot, because our hands are full - there's nowhere for Him to put it.'
C. S. Lewis
