C. S. Lewis : (4) " God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing. " - C. S. Lewis " Always prefer the plain direct word to the long, vague one. Don’t implement promises, but keep them. " - C. S. Lewis " Some people write heavily, some write lightly. I prefer the light approach because I believe there is a great deal of false reverence about. There is too much solemnity and intensity in dealing with sacred matters; too much speaking in holy tones. " - C. S. Lewis " The long, dull, monotonous years of middle-aged prosperity or middle-aged adversity are excellent campaigning weather for the devil. " - C. S. Lewis
