C. S. Lewis
  • Can a mortal ask questions which God finds unanswerable? Quite easily, I should think. All nonsense questions are unanswerable.

  • Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.

  • How incessant and great are the ills with which a prolonged old age is replete.

  • Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives.

  • God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.
