“A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“Experience is a brutal teacher, but you learn fast.”
― William Nicholson, Shadowlands: A Play

“He died not for men, but for each man. If each man had been the only man made, He would have done no less.”
