Sunday Quotes: Trying To Be Original
Following up with a not-so-subtle theme from my last few posts, here’s one of my favorite Lewis quotes:
Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original. Whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.
-C.S. Lewis
**I think that’s from one of Lewis’ essays in The Weight of Glory, but I’m not sure. Someday, I’ll look up the exact source, but for now I’m Sabbathing.
Sunday Quotes: Old Enough Again
“Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.”
-C.S. Lewis
On that note, this weekend I’ll be starting a journey through “The Chronicles of Narnia” as I road trip across the nation (again). See ya’ll on the flip side.
