“I have a great need for Christ: I have a great Christ for my need.”
― Charles H. Spurgeon

“Why you fool, it's the educated reader who CAN be gulled. All our difficulty comes with the others. When did you meet a workman who believes the papers? He takes it for granted that they're all propaganda and skips the leading articles. He buys his paper for the football results and the little paragraphs about girls falling out of windows and corpses found in Mayfair flats. He is our problem. We have to recondition him. But the educated public, the people who read the high-brow weeklies, don't need reconditioning. They're all right already. They'll believe anything.”
― C.S. Lewis, That Hideous Strength

“Isn't it absolutely essential to keep a fierce Left and fierce Right, both on their toes and each terrified of the other? That's how we get things done.”
― C.S. Lewis, That Hideous Strength

“God, nevertheless, required a little help from men, and what he mostly got was hindrance.”
― Ellis Peters, A Morbid Taste for Bones
