C.S. Lewis
“It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.”
C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory, and Other Addresses

William Blake
“If a thing loves, it is infinite.”
William Blake

Hugh Lofting
“Some people you will always have about you whom you can trust, and no man these days can boast of more than that. Remember them; forget the others.”
Hugh Lofting

D.H. Lawrence
“I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself”
D.H. Lawrence
