C.S. Lewis
C.S.Lewis is one of my favorite authors. He died the same year I was born, the same day that Pres. Kennedy was assassinated. He was a brilliant man who continues to impact the world through his writings. He penned such works as the Chronicles of Narnia which have recently gone to the Big Screen. His words have impacted me greatly over the years of my life so I thought I would share some of his more famous quotes with you this morning. Enjoy! And tell me which one you liked the best!

Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, "What! You too? I thought I was the only one!"
God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.
I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.
If we really think that home is elsewhere and that this life is a "wandering to find home," why should we not look forward to the arrival?
Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.
The future is something which everyone reaches at the rate of 60 minutes an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is.
Thirty was so strange for me. I've really had to come to terms with the fact that I am now a walking and talking adult.
You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.
