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

Dante Alighieri
“The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who, in times of great moral crisis, maintain their neutrality.”
Dante Alighieri

G.K. Chesterton
“When you break the big laws, you do not get liberty; you do not even get anarchy. You get the small laws.”
G.K. Chesterton

Groucho Marx
“One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas I'll never know.”
Groucho Marx

C.S. Lewis
“I sometimes wonder if all pleasures are not substitutes for joy.”
C.S. Lewis
