G.K. Chesterton
“The point is not that this world is too sad to love or too glad not to love; the point is that when you do love a thing, its gladness is a reason for loving it, and its sadness a reason for loving it more.”
G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

C.S. Lewis
“We may give our human loves the unconditional allegiance which we owe only to God. Then they become gods: then they become demons. Then they will destroy us, and also destroy themselves. For natural loves that are allowed to become gods do not remain loves. They are still called so, but can become in fact complicated forms of hatred.”
C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

Peter S. Beagle
“there never is a happy ending because nothing ever ends.”
Peter S. Beagle, The Last Unicorn

G.K. Chesterton
“the human intellect is free to destroy itself.”
G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

Andrei Tarkovsky
“Poetry is an awareness of the world, a particular way of relating to reality.”
Andrei Tarkovsky, Sculpting in Time
