Commonplace Quotes
The first demand any work of any art makes upon us is Surrender. Look. Listen. Receive. Get yourself out of the way.
~ C.S. Lewis
“I was the lion who forced you to join with Aravis. I was the cat who comforted you among the houses of the dead. I was the lion who drove the jackals from you while you slept. I was the lion who gave the Horses the new strength of fear for the last mile so that you should reach King Lune in time. And I was the lion you do not remember who pushed the boat in which you lay, a child near death, so that it came to shore where a man sat, wakeful at midnight, to receive you.”
“Then it was you who wounded Aravis?”
“It was I.”
“But what for?”
“Child,” said the voice, “I am telling you your story, not hers. I tell no one any story but his own.”
~ The Horse and His Boy, C.S. Lewis
