“God made us: invented us as a man invents an engine. A car is made to run on petrol, and it would not run properly on anything else. Now God designed the human machine to run on Himself. He Himself is the fuel our spirits were designed to burn, or the food our spirits were designed to feed on. There is no other.

― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“What the hell, if you are going to roll the dice with Lucifer, I say go the distance.”
