C.S. Lewis
“Literature exists to teach what is useful, to honour what deserves honour, to appreciate what is delightful. The useful, honourable, and delightful things are superior to it: it exists for their sake; its own use, honour, or delightfulness is derivative from theirs. In that sense, the art is humble even when the artists are proud.”
C.S. Lewis, The Discarded Image: An Introduction to Medieval and Renaissance Literature

C.S. Lewis
“One might have expected the High Faries to have been expelled by science; I think they were actually expelled by a darkening of superstition.”
C.S. Lewis, The Discarded Image: An Introduction to Medieval and Renaissance Literature

G.K. Chesterton
“My life is passed in making bad jokes and seeing them turn into true prophecies.”
G.K. Chesterton, Irish Impressions

C.S. Lewis
“Every Model is a construct of answered questions.”
C.S. Lewis, The Discarded Image: An Introduction to Medieval and Renaissance Literature

“Go and sit in your cell, and your cell will teach you everything.”
Abba Moses
