William Lewis or Willie Lewis may refer to:...
errors temptation needs
After an error you need not only to remove the causes but also to correct the error itself: after a sin you must not only, if possible, remove the temptation, you must also go back and repent the sin itself. In each case an 'undoing' is required.
mistake book mean
Every age has its own outlook. It is specially good at seeing certain truths and specially liable to make certain mistakes. We all, therefore, need the books that will correct the characteristic mistake of our own period. And that means the old books.
teacher real teaching
In a word, we may reasonably hope for the virtual abolition of education when I'm as good as you has fully had its way. All incentives to learn and all penalties for not learning will vanish.The few who might want to learn will be prevented; who are they to overtop their fellows? And anyway the teachers-or should I say, nurses?-will be far too busy reassuring the dunces and patting them on the back to waste any time on real teaching. We shall no longer have to plan and toil to spread imperturable conceit and incurable ignorance among men. The little vermin themselves will do it for us.
wall men hair
Men propound mathematical theorems in besieged cities, conduct metaphysical arguments in condemned cells, make jokes on the scaffold, discuss a new poem while advancing to the walls of Quebec, and comb their hair at Thermopylae. This is not panache; it is our nature.
morning men thinking
I enjoyed my breakfast this morning, and I think that was a good thing and do not think it was condemned by God. But I do not think myself a good man for enjoying it.
attitude real passion
We must perpetually try to distinguish, however closely they get entwined by the subtle nature of the facts and by the secret importunity of our passions, those attitudes in a writer which we can honestly and confidently condemn as real evils, and those qualities in his writing which simply annoy and offend us as men of taste.
doe bones felt
I felt in my bones that this universe does not explain itself.
years care next
The next moment is as much beyond our grasp, and as much in God's care, as that a hundred years away. Care for the next minute is as foolish as care for a day in the next thousand years. In neither can we do anything, in both God is doing everything.
spiritual culture moral
A sign of a culture that has lost its faith - Moral collapse follows upon spiritual collapse.
ink cures humans
Ink is the great cure for all human ills.
long direct vague
Always prefer the plain direct word to the long, vague one.
his-love demand natural
Because God created the Natural - invented it out of His love and artistry - it demands our reverence.
long promise delight
We long for more and God's promise is that there is more awaiting us. More to delight us than we will ever exhaust.
temptation needed hardest
We must get over wanting to be needed-this is the hardest of all temptations to resist
