“I do not believe one can settle how much we ought to give. I am afraid the only safe rule is to give more than we can spare. In other words, if our expenditure on comforts, luxuries, amusements, etc, is up to the standard common among those with the same income as our own, we are probably giving away too little. If our charities do not at all pinch or hamper us, I should say they are too small. There ought to be things we should like to do and cannot do because our charitable expenditure excludes them.”
― CS Lewis, Mere Christianity

“A great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted at the end. You live several lives while reading.”

“Whenever you are fed up with life, start writing: ink is the great cure for all human ills, as I have found out long ago.”
