“An open mind, in questions that are not ultimate, is useful. But an open mind about the ultimate foundations either of Theoretical or of Practical Reason is idiocy.

― C.S. Lewis, The Abolition of Man

“As long as you have some idea of what’s happening to you, ‘real’ or ‘unreal’ doesn’t matter. You have to stand up for what you care about; if you don’t, you lose control of who you are.”
― Stephen R. Donaldson, The Wounded Land

“What is the difference between an obstacle and an opportunity? Our attitude toward it. Every opportunity has a difficulty, and every difficulty has an opportunity.”
― J. Sidlow Baxter

“Even prophets and madmen require sustenance.”
