THE GEM 23 JULY 2018 : EVEN IF YOUR WORDS ARE A LIE, YOUR EYES ALWAYS TELL THE TRUTH.

Libby Saumur.

It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.”

― C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory, and Other Addresses
