I am taking a writing hiatus at the moment (and for the past 18 months or so of moments, really...!), and I'm trying to decide whether to keep the blog and really write regularly, or not to keep it. We shall see in due time.
For now, another quote, from beloved C.S. himself.
"Every age has its own outlook. It is specially good at seeing certain truths and specially liable to make certain mistakes. […] None of us can escape this blindness, but we shall certainly increase it, and weaken our guard against it if we read only modern books. Where they are true, they will give us truths which we half knew already. Where they are false, they will aggravate the error with which we are already dangerously ill. The only palliative is to keep the clean sea breeze of the centuries blowing through our minds, and this can be done only by reading old books. […] To be sure, the books of the future would be just as good a corrective as the books of the past, but unfortunately we cannot get at them."-C.S. Lewis
