C. S. Lewis Quote
January 1st, 2006“…[I]f there was only someone with a richer talent and more leisure I think that this great ignorance [of the Christian ideas in Out of the Silent Planet] might be a help to the evangelisation of England; any amount of theology can now be smuggled into people’s minds under cover of romance without their knowing it.”
This was written before the Chronicles of Narnia.
I don’t really want to review the book I got that from- a biography of Lewis by George Sayer, but it was worth reading. There were some really good thoughts in there.
Also, I record the following books & authors that were mentioned in a manner calculated to intrigue and interest: “Castle Blair” by Flora Shaw, “Crock of Gold” by James Stephens, and the author William Morris. I know next to nothing about these people. Someday when I have read all the books on my waiting list, I’ll start poking around for more information…
