If you are on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; and in that case the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive man. – C.S. Lewis
True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less. – C.S. Lewis
Our prayers for others flow more easily than those for ourselves. This shows we are made to live by charity. – C.S. Lewis
The claim to equality, outside of the strictly political field, is made only by those who feel themselves to be in some way inferior. – C.S. Lewis
