C. S. Lewis Alive Quotations

I must keep alive in myself the desire for my true country, which I shall not find till after death.

An 'impersonal God'-well and good. A subjective God of beauty, truth and goodness, inside our own heads-better still. A formless life-force surging through us, a vast power which we can tap-best of all. But God himself, alive, pulling at the other end of the cord, perhaps approaching at an infinite speed, the hunter, King, husband-that is quite another matter.

We have to be continually reminded of what we believe. No belief will automatically remain alive in the mind. It must be fed.

I came alive when I started loving you.

When all the suns and nebulae have passed away, each one of you will still be alive.
