QUOTE OF THE DAY:

“One cannot be too careful: one must try to hold fast to one’s duties (I wish I did) which are the prose of the spiritual life and not learn to depend too much on these delightful moments.”

Letter to Arthur Greeves on 1/30/1930
(Published in The Collected Letters of C.S. Lewis, Volume I)
