Quote_1.png
Akiroq Brost

"There is 'Soul' even in other living beings. 'Lion', or 'deer', is the ego, but within them is the Soul. Therefore, if you take into consideration the type of ego of every living being and interact accordingly, your work will get done. A lion cannot be provoked but if you provoke a dog, it will run away."

C. S. Lewis
"We have a strange illusion that mere time cancels sin. I have heard others, and I have heard myself, recounting cruelties and falsehoods committed in boyhood as if they were no concern of the present speaker's, and even with laughter. But mere time does nothing either to the fact or to the guilt of a sin. The guilt is washed out not by time but by repentance and the blood of Christ: if we have repented these early sins we should remember the price of our forgiveness and be humble."

"The malice thus becomes wholly real and the benevolence largely imaginary."
Quote_1.png
C. S. Lewis

"Envy, bleating 'I'm as good as you', is the hotbed of Fascism."
Quote_1.png
C. S. Lewis
"Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is. ... We never find out the strength of the evil impulse inside us until we try to fight it: and Christ, because He was the only man who never yielded to temptation, is also the only man who knows to the full what temptation means-the only complete realist."

C. S. Lewis
"We meet like sovereign princes of independent states, abroad, on neutral ground, freed from our contexts."
