The Essential C.S. Lewis Quotes

“It is essential of the happy life that a man would have almost no mail.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Essential C.S. Lewis

“Your patient must demand that all his own utterances are to be taken at their face value and judged simply on the actual words, while at the same time judging all his mother's utterances with the fullest and most over-sensitive interpretation of the tone and the context and the suspected intention. She must be encouraged to do the same to him. Hence from every quarrel they can both go away convinced, or nearly convinced, that they are quite innocent.”
