“Right is right even if no one is doing it; wrong is wrong even if everyone is doing it.”
― Saint Augustine

“You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.”
― C.S. Lewis

“Your conscience is the measure of the honesty of your selfishness.
Listen to it carefully.”

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves
