Luther and Lewis

Calamity will force you to step out of yourself and not to rely on the counsel, help, and strength of men, but you must have Christ in your heart, so that you hold His Name, Word, and Kingdom higher, dearer, and more precious than all things on earth.—Martin Luther, Sermon on John xiv.23-31

A man in this state hasn't the leisure to think of sex. He is too busy thinking of a person. The fact that she is a woman is far less important than the fact that she is herself.—C. S. Lewis, Business of Heaven, p. 165.
