CSLewis“As to ‘caring for’ the Sermon on the Mount, if ‘caring for’ here means ‘liking or enjoying’, I suppose no one ‘cares for’ it. Who can like being knocked flat on his face by a sledgehammer?”

C.S. Lewis
(1898-1963; England)

“Satan never stops testing us. He says, ‘This idea of self-giving love, where you make yourself totally vulnerable and you orbit around other people – that’ll never work.’”

Tim Keller
(1950-present; New York)

 

CSLewis

“Quarreling means trying to show that the other man is in the wrong. And there would be no sense in trying to do that unless you and he had some sort of agreement as to what Right and Wrong are; just as there would be no sense in saying that a [football player] had committed a foul unless there was some agreement about the rules of football.”

C.S. Lewis
(1898-1963; England)
