A lovely quote from the ever quotable C.S. Lewis for those of us who still enjoy fairy tales. I sincerely hope that’s you.
“You and I who still enjoy fairy tales have less reason to wish actual childhood back. We have kept its pleasures and added some grown-up ones as well.”
– C.S. Lewis Letters to an American Lady
That’s a lovely quote. 🙂
Awesome quote! C.S. Lewis is very quoteable, and has much wisdom about fairytales. 🙂 I’ll never be too old for fairytales! I’m always glad to hear of other people who agree. 🙂 Also, lovely picture quote! Did you make it or find it somewhere or…? Just curious. 😀
Yes, Lewis is so full of wisdom. And yes, I made this little graphic. It’s sort of a hobby of mine, taking quotes and finding beautiful images to go along with them.
Love your image which goes so well with the quote. Takes you to the fairyland!

I haven’t heard that quote by CS Lewis before! I like the way he thought. If I had a TARDIS, I would totally just go back to England in the 1930s just so I could go to the Inklings meetings and be best buddies with CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien. 🙂
I know, right? Oh to have been a fly on the wall at some of those meetings. But I do hope the spirit of their writing lives on in the work we are involved in. A high bar, perhaps, but worth shooting for.
