Danh ngôn của C. S. Lewis

What I call my 'self' now is hardly a person at all. It's mainly a meeting place for various natural forces, desires, and fears, etcetera, some of which come from my ancestors, and some from my education, some perhaps from devils. The self you were really intended to be is something that lives not from nature but from God.

Cái mà tôi gọi là 'cái tôi' của mình bây giờ hầu như không phải là một con người nào cả. Nó chủ yếu là nơi gặp gỡ của nhiều thế lực tự nhiên, ham muốn và nỗi sợ hãi, vân vân, một số đến từ tổ tiên của tôi, một số đến từ trình độ học vấn của tôi, một số có lẽ đến từ ma quỷ. Cái tôi thực sự mà bạn mong muốn trở thành là thứ không đến từ thiên nhiên mà đến từ Chúa.

- Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.

- The mystic cords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave to every living heart and hearthstone, all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the angels of our nature.
- Repeal the Missouri Compromise - repeal all compromises - repeal the Declaration of Independence - repeal all past history, you still cannot repeal human nature. It will be the abundance of man's heart that slavery extension is wrong; and out of the abundance of his heart, his mouth will continue to speak.
- Slavery is founded in the selfishness of man's nature - opposition to it is his love of justice. These principles are an eternal antagonism; and when brought into collision so fiercely, as slavery extension brings them, shocks and throes and convulsions must ceaselessly follow.
- Human nature is not nearly as bad as it has been thought to be.
- To feel much for others and little for ourselves; to restrain our selfishness and exercise our benevolent affections, constitute the perfection of human nature.
