“Give up yourself, and you will find your real self. Lose your life and you will save it. Submit to death, death of your ambitions and favorite wishes every day and death of your whole body in the end submit with ever fiber of your being, and you will find eternal life. Keep back nothing. Nothing that you have not given away will be really yours. Nothing in you that has not died will ever be raised from the dead. Look for yourself, and you will find in the long run only hatred, loneliness, despair, rage, ruin, and decay. But look for Christ and you will find Him, and with Him everything else thrown in.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“When you have reached your own room, be kind to those Who have chosen
different doors and to those who are still in the hall.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“When you are behaving as if you loved someone, you will presently come to love him. If you injure someone you dislike, you will find yourself disliking him more. If you do him a good turn, you will find yourself disliking him less.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“The only things we can keep are the things we freely give to God. What we try to keep for ourselves is just what we are sure to lose.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
