• If I tell you that I would be disobeying the god and on that account it is impossible for me to keep quiet, you won't be persuaded by me, taking it that I am ionizing. And if I tell you that it is the greatest good for a human being to have discussions every day about virtue and the other things you hear me talking about, examining myself and others, and that the unexamined life is not livable for a human being, you will be even less persuaded.

• When people talk of atoms obeying fixed laws, they are either ascribing some kind of intelligence and free will to atoms or they are talking nonsense. There is no obedience unless there is at any rate a potentiality of disobeying.

• Entiendo lo que es el amor, y esa es una de las razones por las que no puedo volver a ser cristiano. El amor no es negación de uno mismo. El amor no es sangre y sufrimiento. El amor no es asesinar a tu hijo para apaciguar tu propia vanidad. El amor no es odio o ira, consignando a miles de millones de personas a la tortura eterna porque han ofendido tu ego o desobedecido tus reglas. El amor no es obediencia, conformidad o sumisión. Es un amor falso que depende de la autoridad, el castigo o la recompensa. El verdadero amor es respeto y admiración, compasión y bondad, dados libremente por un ser humano sano y sin miedo.

• Do not fancy, as too many do, that thou canst praise God by singing hymns to Him in church once a week, and disobeying Him all the week long. He asks of thee works as well as words; and more, he asks of thee works first and words after.

• Nunca debemos olvidar que todo lo que Adolf Hitler hizo en Alemania fue "legal" y todo lo que los luchadores por la libertad húngaros hicieron en Hungría fue "ilegal". Era "ilegal" ayudar y consolar a un judío en la Alemania de Hitler. Aun así, estoy seguro de que, si hubiera vivido en Alemania en aquella época, habría ayudado y consolado a mis hermanos judíos. Si hoy viviera en un país comunista donde se reprimen ciertos principios queridos por la fe cristiana, abogaría abiertamente por desobedecer las leyes antirreligiosas de ese país.

• We don't have polls from the business world, but it's pretty clear that the energy corporations in America would be quite happy to be given authorization to go back into Iran instead of leaving all that to their rivals. But the state won't allow it. And it is setting up confrontations right now, very explicitly. Part of the reason is strategic, geo-political, economic, but part of the reason is the mafia complex. They have to be punished for disobeying us.

• No one should be surprised at the difficulty of faith, if there is some part of his life where he is consciously resisting or disobeying the commandment of Jesus. Is there some part of your life which you are refusing to surrender at his behest, some sinful passion, maybe, or some animosity, some hope, perhaps your ambition or your reason? ... How can you hope to enter into communion with him when at some point in your life you are running away from him?

• Mi propia idea, por si sirve de algo, es que toda tristeza que no surja del arrepentimiento de un pecado concreto y no se apresure a una enmienda o restitución concreta, o que no surja de la compasión y no se apresure a una ayuda activa, es simplemente mala; y creo que todos pecamos por desobedecer innecesariamente el mandato apostólico de "alegrarnos" tanto como por cualquier otra cosa. La humildad, después de la primera conmoción, es una virtud alegre.

  C. S. Lewis
