Today I want to share with you some quotes from C.S.Lewis (1898-1963), a former atheist, author of the Chronicles of Narnia:
I gave in, and admitted that God was God.
*
God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.
*
If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. Dark would be without meaning.
*
A man can no more diminish God’s glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, ‘darkness’ on the walls of his cell.
*
Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.
*
Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.

Great quotes! I love C.S. Lewis. He has such a great way of expressing the things that lurk in our minds, but rarely ever make it to formal thought.
@Angie – I agree.
@Fireball – thank you for stopping by and commenting. I liked this one expecially, too.
@Tara – You are right, he was a great thinker.
