C.S. Lewis Quotes
(Of The Main Character Seeing A New World For The First Time.) The Air Was Cold But Not Bitterly So, And It Seemed A Bit Rough At The Back Of His Throat. He Gazed About Him, And The Very Intensity Of His Desire To Take In The New World At A Glance Defeated Itself. He Saw Nothing But Colours - Colours That Refused To Form Themselves Into Things. Moreover, He Knew Nothing Yet Well Enough To See It: You Cannot See Things Till You Know Roughly What They Are. His First Impression Was Of A Bright, Pale World - A Watercolour World Out Of A Child's Paint-box, A Moment Later He Recognised The Flat Belt Of Light Blue As A Sheet Of Water, Or Of Something Like Water, Which Came Nearly To His Feet. They Were On The Shore Of A Lake Or River.
