Experience is a brutal teacher, but you learn. My god, do you learn.
 C. S. Lewis  (via psych-facts)
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.
C.S. Lewis (via observando)
Literary experience heals the wound, without undermining the privilege, of individuality… In reading great literature I become a thousand men and yet remain myself. Like a night sky in the Greek poem, I see with a myriad eyes, but it is still I who see. Here, as in worship, in love, in moral action, and in knowing, I transcend myself; and am never more myself than when I do.
C.S. Lewis (via wewontneedlegs)
But someday you will be old enough to start reading fairytales again.
