Quote DB :: Authors :: C.S. Lewis :: View Quote View Quote "What seem our worst prayers may really be, in God's eyes, our best. Those, I mean, which are least supported by devotional feeling. For these may come from a deeper level than feeling. God sometimes seems to speak to us most intimately when He catches us, as it were, off our guard." - Copy to Clipboard   --  C.S.

Lewis "Morality, like numinous awe, is a jump; in it, man goes beyond anything that can be 'given' in the facts of experience." "Reasoning is never, like poetry, judged from the outside at all." "Part of every misery is, so to speak, the misery's shadow or reflection: the fact that you don't merely suffer but have to keep on thinking about the fact that you suffer. I not only live each endless day in grief, but live each day thinking about living each day in grief." "There will be two kinds of people in the end: Those that will say to God 'Thy will be done' and those to whom God will say 'Thy will be done.'" "Our passions are not too strong, they are too weak. We are far too easily pleased." Top 5 quotes from Prayer "Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us." "I have been driven many times upon my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go. My own wisdom, and that of all about me, seemed insufficient for the day." "Certain thoughts are prayers. There are moments when, whatever be the attitude of the body, the soul is on its knees." "When the gods wish to punish us, they answer our prayers." "Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you."
