“..It's the educated reader who can be gulled. All our difficulty comes with the others. When did you meet a workman who believes the papers? He takes it for granted that they're all propaganda and skips the leading articles. He buys his paper for the football results and the little paragraphs about girls falling out of windows and corpses found in Mayfair flats. He is our problem. We have to recondition him. But the educated public, the people who read the highbrow weeklies, they don't need reconditioning. They're all right already. They'll believe anything.”

That Hideous Strength, C.S. Lewis

“...we escape the struggles and responsibilities of actual life by residing in one that doesn't yet exist.”

The Screwtape Letters, C.S. Lewis

“It is funny how mortals always picture us [devils] as putting things into their minds: in reality our best work is done by keeping things out.”

The Screwtape Letters, C.S. Lewis

“She's the sort of woman who lives for others - you can always tell the others by their hunted expression.”
