C.S. Lewis Wisest Quotes About Life That Everyone Must Hear! #Quotes #Quote #CSLewis

Hi everyone! Today's Daily Reminder is come from a British Writer, C.S. Lewis.

He held academic positions in English literature at both Oxford University (Magdalen College, 1925–1954) and Cambridge University (Magdalene College, 1954–1963). He is best known as the author of The Chronicles of Narnia, but he is also noted for his other works of fiction, such as The Screwtape Letters and The Space Trilogy, and for his non-fiction Christian apologetics, including Mere Christianity, Miracles, and The Problem of Pain.

Lewis was a close friend of J. R. R. Tolkien, author of The Lord of the Rings. Both men served on the English faculty at Oxford University and were active in the informal Oxford literary group known as the Inklings. According to Lewis's 1955 memoir Surprised by Joy, he was baptized in the Church of Ireland but fell away from his faith during adolescence. Lewis returned to Anglicanism at the age of 32, owing to the influence of Tolkien and other friends, and he became an "ordinary layman of the Church of England". Lewis's faith profoundly affected his work, and his wartime radio broadcasts on the subject of Christianity brought him wide acclaim.

Lewis wrote more than 30 books which have been translated into more than 30 languages and have sold millions of copies. The books that make up The Chronicles of Narnia have sold the most and have been popularized on stage, TV, radio, and cinema. His philosophical writings are widely cited by Christian scholars from many denominations.

In 1956, Lewis married American writer Joy Davidman; she died of cancer four years later at the age of 45. Lewis died on 22 November 1963 from kidney failure, one week before his 65th birthday. In 2013, on the 50th anniversary of his death, Lewis was honoured with a memorial in Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey.

We hope you enjoy it, thankyou!

Beatiful quotes AND beatiful sound music

[WadeWeigle]

It’s good to hear little quotes from Mr. Lewis. Thank you for sharing this.

[mindful_books]

Which one is easier?
Trying to get rid of all the sharp gravel on every path to walk on or wearing shoes so that our feet don't get hurt?

Which one is more likely?
Trying to sterilize all places so that there are no germs or strengthen our own immune systems?

Which one is easier?
Trying to prevent every mouth from speaking indiscriminately or keeping our own hearts from being irritable?

Which one is more important?
Trying to master others or learning to master yourself?

After musing, after contemplating.
Apparently what matters is, not how people should be good to us,
it's how we try to be good at everyone.
It is not someone else who can make us happy,
rather it is our own behavior and feelings that determine whether we are happy or not.
Because, happiness is within.
it is within us.

This would have been great minus the robotic narration.

I don’t know why someone read this and then slowed it down to make it sound more rich. It sounds slurred and like the person had a stroke or is kind of drunk. Makes this hard to listen to. Love CS Lewis though…
