Clive Staples Lewis

Awhile back I found myself going through some quotes of note and came across a few very profound, provocative, & moving statements by the late author C.S. Lewis. And in eve of the theatrical release of Prince Caspian soon, I feel it necessary to share a few with you. To learn more about the author, go here.
