Results from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:

We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst.: C. S. Lewis (1898 - 1963)
I live in the Managerial Age, in a world of "Admin." The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid "dens of crime" that Dickens loved to paint. It is not done even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voices. Hence, naturally enough, my symbol for Hell is something like the bureaucracy of a police state or the office of a thoroughly nasty business concern.: C. S. Lewis (1898 - 1963)

Results from Internet Collections: 20th Century Quotations:

Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket--safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.: C. S. Lewis (1898 - 1963)

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art...It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.: C. S. Lewis (1898 - 1963)
We are not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us; we are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be.: C.S. Lewis
