"With the possible exception of the equator,..." - Quote by C S Lewis

“A pipe gives a wise man time to think and a fool something to stick in his mouth.”

“In reality, moral rules are directions for running the human machine. Every moral rule is there to prevent a breakdown, or a strain, or a friction, in the running of that machine. That is why these rules at first seem to be constantly interfering with our natural inclinations.”

“The story does what no theorem can quite do. It may not be "like real life" in the superficial sense: but it sets before us an image of what reality may well be like at some more central region.”

“For it matters not how small the beginning may seem to be: what is once well done is done forever.”

“Even the greatest was once a beginner. Don't be afraid to take that first step.”

“Everything starts with a story.”

“Discontent is the seed of ethics.”

“Idleness is the beginning of all psychology. What? Could it be that psychology is ? a vice?”

“Nothing can be produced out of nothing.”
