When you invite a middle-aged moralist to address you, I suppose I must conclude, however unlikely the conclusion seems, that you have a taste for middle-aged moralizing. I shall do my best to gratify it. -CS Lewis, The Inner Ring
Well, on my coronation day, with Aslan’s approval, I swore an oath that, if once I established peace in Narnia, I would sail east myself for a year and a day to find my father’s friends or to learn of their deaths and avenge them if I could. -CS Lewis, Voyage of the Dawn Treader
It looks as if the confusion between imaginative enjoyment and intellectual assent, of which Christians are accused, is not nearly so common or so easy as some people suppose. -CS Lewis, Is Theology Poetry?
Every man, I believe, enjoys the world picture which he accepts, for the gravity and finality of the actual is itself an aesthetic stimulus. -CS Lewis, Is Theology Poetry?
Christianity offers the attractions neither of optimism nor of pessimism. It represents the life of the universe as being very like the moral life of men on this planet - “of a mingled yarn, good and ill together.” -CS Lewis, Is Theology Poetry?
To believe in the forgiveness of sins is not nearly so easy as I thought. Real belief in it is the sort of thing that very easily slips away if we don’t keep on polishing it up. -CS Lewis, Essay: On Forgiveness
We live, in fact, in a world starved for solitude, silence, and privacy, and therefore starved for meditation and true friendship. -CS Lewis, Membership
We say a great many things in church (and out of church too) without thinking of what we are saying. -CS Lewis, On Forgiveness
If Good = ‘whatever Nature happens to be doing’, then surely we should notice what Nature is doing as a whole; and Nature as a whole, I understand, is working steadily and irreversibly towards the final extinction of all life in every part of the universe. -CS Lewis
And even when… someone is left physically by himself, the wireless has seen to it that he will be - in a sense not intended by Scipio - never less alone than when alone. -CS Lewis, Membership
This, then, is why I am not a Pacifist. If I tried to become one, I should find a very doubtful factual basis, an obscure train of reasoning, a weight of authority both human and Divine against me, and strong grounds for suspecting that my wishes had directed my decision. -CSL
All the animal life in us, all schemes of happiness that centered in this world, were always doomed to a final frustration. In ordinary times only a wise man can realize it. -CS Lewis, Learning in War Time
Men do not long continue to think what they have forgotten how to say. -CS Lewis, Reading Life
“Loyal as a badger, Ma’am, and valiant as—as a Mouse,” said Drinian. He had been going to say “as a lion” but had noticed Reepicheep’s eyes fixed on him. -CS Lewis, Voyage of the Dawn Treader
If Christianity is only a mythology, then I find the mythology I believe in is not the one I like best. I like Greek mythology much better, Irish better still, Norse best of all. -CS Lewis, Is Theology Poetry?
For those who do not perceive its rationality, even universal consent could not prove it. -CS Lewis, The Abolition of Man
Once turn swine into a mere insult, and you need a new word (pig) when you want to talk about the animal. Once let sadism dwindle into a useless synonym for cruelty, and what do you do when you have to refer to the highly special perversion which actually afflicted M. de Sade?
“To the convenience of a lady,” said Reepicheep, “even a question of honor must give way—at least for the moment—” and here he looked very hard at Eustace. -CS Lewis, Voyage of the Dawn Treader
The first fact I discover, or seem to discover, is that for me at any rate, if Theology is Poetry, it is not very good poetry. -CS Lewis, Is Theology Poetry?
…a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To ‘see through’ all things is the same as not to see. -CS Lewis, The Abolition of Man

"I am a don" -CS Lewis
I am a don, and ‘source-hunting’ (Quellenforschung) is perhaps in my marrow. -CS Lewis, Reading Life
Actually Yes. If God did create all that is- and as humans we pay him no respect, reverence or attention- that takes huge ego.
Is there a notion more ego-centric and pandering than the idea that God really wants to hang out with you forever?
He may be Protestant but I think Iaybhave to read Mr. Lewis' Mere Christianity. Got a lot of Bangers there.
If you injure someone you dislike, you will find yourself disliking him more. If you do him a good turn, you will find yourself disliking him less. -CS Lewis, Mere Christianity

Important quote
Do not let your nerves and emotions lead you into thinking your predicament more abnormal than it really is. -CS Lewis, Learning in War Time
@cslewisbeyond I refer people to that essay every other week.
@cslewisbeyond Posting his quotes and excerpts from his book is fine. I enjoy his writings including mere Christianity and screwtape letters but I wouldn’t make the username look like it is him and pay for ads to funnel ppl to a product.
@cslewisbeyond I might do that after reading this one (going by my expectations of the book :D)
@cslewisbeyond @SecretCalvinist @flc9105 @hookskat How anyone could think CS Lewis would lead a Christian astray is a mystery to me.
@cslewisbeyond @wfamily @wokal_distance Yeah. I think it’s going to be one of those perennial books.
@cslewisbeyond @_no_soy_muggle_ it's my favourite of the Narnia books!
I got saved 2 years ago. I immediately ended OF and realized God didn't make me pansexual. I'm still repenting of self worship. Over time, I've stopped posting selfies for attention, I wear less makeup, and now I'm convicted to let go of my dyed hair. Sanctification takes time.

@JoelWBerry @JeremyDBoreing CS Lewis is the one historical person (other than Christ) I would choose to meet. So wise and funny. “The Great Divorce” is my all time favorite book.
Much like in CS Lewis’ “Voyage of the Dawn Treader” (my favorite Narnia book by far, it has former-star wizard who’s married to a Galadriel type lady - it’s amazing.) The moment where Eustace becomes a dragon and needs Aslan’s claws to peel the scales away. THIS is what we need.
Read CS Lewis
It's just insane how morally hideous the concept of Hell is. I can't even imagine believing it. Ridiculous we're even expected to take it seriously. This God would be easily the most evil creature ever imagined. Why is this not considered one of the worst possible beliefs?
