“Each day we are becoming a creature of splendid glory
or one of unthinkable horror.”
Mere Christianity, C.S. Lewis, 1952.
“The internal struggle continued. Who was it that had killed
him? Well, first he had to decide who he was himself. Was Ray the good guy or
the bad guy in this TV series? Was he the victim or accused? Indeed, he was
both, and eventually that is how he answered.”
The Great Beyond,
Keith Allan Shields, 2017, pp. 84, 85.
“I do not think that all who choose wrong roads perish; but
their rescue consists in being put back on the right road. A sum can be put
right: but only by going back til you find the error and working it afresh from
that point, never by simply going on. Evil can be undone, but it cannot
'develop' into good. Time does not heal it. The spell must be unwound, bit by
bit, 'with backward mutters of dissevering power' --or else not.”
C.S. Lewis, The Great Divorce, 1945.
