If we really believe what we say we believe- if we really think that home is elsewhere and that this life is 'wandering to find home', why should we not look forward to the arrival?
-C.S. Lewis

-Sigmund Freud
which attitude would you rather have?
C.S. Lewis is one of my favorite men to quote. He had an incredibly brilliant mind and a unique ability to get straight to the heart of an issue. He also enjoyed having fun with academia, his chosen life pursuit. ...

-Henry Blamires on C.S. Lewis
