“Our natural experiences (sensory, emotional, imaginative) are only like the drawing, like penciled lines on flat paper. If they vanish in the risen life, they will vanish only as pencil lines vanish from the real landscape, not as a candle flame that is put out but as a candle flame which because invisible because someone has pulled up the blind, thrown open the shutters, and let in the blaze of the risen sun.”
― Clive Staples C S Lewis, The Weight of Glory

“To overcome the need to be productive, as a lot of productivity is destructive.”
― San Mateo, San Mateo: Proof of The Divine

“In winter we close the windows
and read Chekhov,
nearly weeping for his world.

What luxury, to be so happy
that we can grieve
over imaginary lives.”
― Lisel Mueller

“I have learned to kiss the waves that throw me up against the Rock of Ages”
― Charles H. Spurgeon
