There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind.

C. S. Lewis Novelist

Integrity is doing the right thing, even when no one is watching.

C. S. Lewis Novelist

The pain I feel now is the happiness I had before. That's the deal.

C. S. Lewis Novelist

Education without values, as useful as it is, seems rather to make man a more clever devil.

C. S. Lewis Novelist

Many of the things that bring delight should not be owned. They are more enjoyed if another's, than if yours; the first day they give pleasure to the owner, but in all the rest to the others: what belongs to another rejoices doubly, because it is without the risk of going stale and with the satisfaction of freshness. . . the possession of things not only diminishes their enjoyment, but augments their annoyance, whether shared or not shared.

Baltasar Gracian Writer

Happiness is not the reward of virtue, but is virtue itself; nor do we delight in happiness because we restrain from our lusts; but on the contrary, because we delight in it, therefore we are able to restrain them.

Baruch Spinoza Philosopher

It is the contest that delights us, and not the victory.

Blaise Pascal Mathematician

I flush with heaving passion's strange delight, Yet find contentment lost in appetite.

Brian Swimme

If you delight more in God’s gifts than in God Himself, you are practically setting up another God above Him, and this you must never do.

Charles Spurgeon Preacher

Often a retrospect delights the mind.

Dante Alighieri Poet
