“Extraordinary things only happen to extraordinary people.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

“The ideal community, in a sense, would be the loose, fluid aggregation of individuals who elected to be alone and detached in order to be at one with themselves and all that lives and breathes. It would be a God-filled community, even if none of its members believe in (a) God. It would be a paradise, even though the word had long disappeared from our vocabulary.”
― Henry Miller, Big Sur and the Oranges of Hieronymus Bosch

“We have not long to live in any event. Let us spend what is left in seeking the unpeopled world behind the sunrise.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

“Surely every one realizes, at some point along the way, that he is capable of living a far better life than the one he has chosen. What stays him, usually, is the fear of the sacrifices involved. (Even to relinquish his chains seems like a sacrifice.) yet everyone knows that nothing is accomplished without sacrifice.”
― Henry Miller, Big Sur and the Oranges of Hieronymus Bosch
