G.K. Chesterton Quotes

My First And Last Philosophy ... I Learnt In The Nursery ... The Things I Believed Then, The Things I Believe Most Now, Are The Things Called Fairy Tales ... They Are Not Fantasies: Compared With Them Other Things Are Fantastic ... Fairyland Is Nothing But The Sunny Country Of Common Sense. It Is Not Earth That Judges Heaven, But Heaven That Judges Earth ... I Knew The Magic Beanstalk Before I Tasted Beans; I Was Sure Of The Man In The Moon Before I Was Certain Of The Moon.
I Am Concerned With A Certain Way Of Looking At Life, Which Was Created In Me By The Fairy Tales, But Has Since Been Meekly Ratified By The Mere Facts.
