God Quote by C.S. Lewis — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Then Hwin, though shaking all over, gave a strange little neigh and trotted across to the Lion.”

“The rule of the universe is that others can do for us what we cannot do for ourselves, and one can paddle every canoe except one's own.”

“For in grief nothing "stays put." One keeps on emerging from a phase, but it always recurs. Round and round. Everything repeats. Am I going in circles, or dare I hope I am on a spiral?”

“I have no duty to be anyone's Friend and no man in the world has a duty to be mine. No claims, no shadow of necessity. Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art, like the universe itself (for God did not need to create). It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things which give value to survival.”

“There is but one good; that is God. Everything else is good when it looks to Him and bad when it turns from Him.”

“For you will certainly carry out God's purpose, however you act, but it makes a difference to you whether you serve like Judas or like John.”

“God created heaven on earth but man created hell.”

“If there is a particular person in your life that is repeatedly choosing not to honor you and is causing you more sadness or pain than they are joy - it might be time to release that friendship back to God and trust that it is not where you belong.”

“God teaches all men to come to Christ.”

“Love is always great. Greatness is part of love. Vastness is the flavour of love. That is why our so-called love is not love, because it is too small. If love is too small, it is not love.”

“I said I don’t believe in God and he said you will, give it time.”

“When we enter this world, it is terribly raw and brutal and repugnant and of divine beauty. This is nature: cold as stone and splendid as the finest love. And I say to myself: This continues after death. This is still nature and things can happen which would make you aghast. For example, take a man who starts off as a young lad with very tender stirrings of the heart, but what has become of him after thirty or forty years? And Gott-fried Keller said the same of young girls, how innocent they looked and what then becomes of them later! One could say: They become this nature, they grow into it and become these devils that they precisely are also in eternal nature. And then the dead come into a different nature. They are born into it through death and assume the color and pitch of that nature. For “there” is also some sort of nature, it too is somehow of God.”
