“‘Isaiah 11:6. The wolf shall dwell with the lamb: and the leopard shall lie down with the kid: the calf and the lion, and the sheep shall abide together, and a little child shall lead them.’ [Dr. Floriani notes: Unless I am gravely mistaken (and have lost all grasp of the printed word) this is the verse often quoted (I mean mis-quoted) as “And the lion shall lie down with the lamb” which does not occur in Scripture.]”

“In the famous exchange of letters (in Latin) between C.S. Lewis and St. Giovanni Calabria, Lewis makes a prescient remark: ‘They err who say: “The world is turning pagan again.” Would that it were! The truth is, we are falling into a much worse state. Post-Christian man is not the same as pre-Christian man. He is as far removed as a virgin from a widow.’”

Ted Janiszewski in Gilbert The Magazine of the Society of G.K. Chesterton Vol. 26 #1 (Sept.-Oct. 2022)

“The same age which tends to economic slavery tends to social anarchy; and especially to sexual anarchy. So long as men can be driven in droves like sheep, they can be as promiscuous as sheep.”

G.K. Chesterton in G.K.’s Weekly March 9, 1929, quoted in Gilbert The Magazine of the Society of G.K. Chesterton Vol. 26 #1 (Sept.-Oct. 2022)

“Educate men without religion and you make them clever devils.”

“‘I try to be, as G.K. Chesterton once wrote, ‘wise enough to be made a fool of.’”

“Christianity, if false, is of no importance and, if true, is of infinite importance. The one thing it cannot be is moderately important.”

– C.S. Lewis, quoted on https://twitter.com/CSLewisDaily/status/1595888784704507905

“If you want to know something about yourself, sit on your bed one night and say to yourself: ‘What is one thing I am doing wrong? That I know I am doing wrong, that I could fix, and that I would fix.’ You have to mean this. This is no game. You meditate on that and you will get an answer. It may not be the one you want but it will be the necessary one. Once you find it, you should push yourself beyond your limits of tolerance to find out where it is and how much you can work. Ask yourself, how disciplined can you be? Can you work 12 hours a day? Where is your limit? And how much work can you do? Push yourself and then back off to that point where it is sustainable. It is good to think about that as a goal. You do not want to have too much fun as it takes you out. So you want to make sure that what you are doing pushes you in every direction that you can, but you should be doing that with an aim in mind. You are trying to make yourself into a better and more competent person.”

“Dear Mr. Chesterton,/ Isn’t one religion really just as good as another?/ Signed,/ ‘Level-Headed’/ Dear ‘Level-Headed,’/ How could it be? You have forgotten what religions are for, and have simply put the question wrong. You are asking me to choose, not even between Tweedledum and Tweedledee, but between Hokey-pokey and Abracadabra. A religion is a thing which professes to tell the truth about the nature of the universe. How could any version of it be as true as any other, unless, of course, they are all of them in all respects false./ Your friend,/ G.K. Chesterton/ (Illustrated London News, Jan. 5, 1907; Gilbert Vol. 1, No. 6)”
