C.S. Lewis
“And certainly both Horses were doing, if not all they could, all they thought they could; which is not quite the same thing.”
C.S. Lewis, The Horse and His Boy

Heather Mac Donald
“The need to plumb the unconscious to explain ongoing racial gaps arises for one reason: It is taboo in universities and mainstream society to acknowledge intergroup differences in interests, abilities, cultural values, or family structure that might produce socioeconomic disparities.”
Heather Mac Donald, The Diversity Delusion: How Race and Gender Pandering Corrupt the University and Undermine Our Culture

C.S. Lewis
“Grief is great. Only you and I in this land know that yet. Let us be good to one another.”
C.S. Lewis, The Magician’s Nephew

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“Rotten, rotten old world,' broke out Eleanor suddenly, 'and the wretchedest thing of all is me--oh, why am I a girl? Why am I not a stupid--? Look at you; you're stupider than I am, not much, but some, and you can lope about and get bored and then lope somewhere else, and you can play around with girls without being involved in meshes of sentiment and you can do anything and be justified--and here am I with the brains to do everything, yet tied to the sinking ship of future matrimony. If I were born a hundred years from now, well and good, but now what's in store for me--I have to marry, that goes without saying. Who? I'm too bright for most men, and yet I have to descend to their level and let them patronize my intellect in order to get their attention. every year that I don't marry I've got less chance for a first class man. At the best I can have my choice from one or two cities and, of course, I have to marry into a dinner-coat.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, This Side of Paradise

C.S. Lewis
“And all at once (they never knew exactly how it happened) the face seemed to be a sea of tossing gold in which they were floating, and such a sweetness and power rolled over them that they felt they had never really been happy or wise or good, or even alive and awake before. And the memory of that moment stayed with them always, so that as long as they both lived, if ever they were sad or afraid or angry, the thought of all that golden goodness, and the feeling that it was still there, quite close, just around the corner or just behind some door, would come back and make them sure, deep down inside, that all was well.”
C.S. Lewis, The Magician’s Nephew
