Don’t you love words of inspiration? Whether profound words from the world’s greatest philosophers, spiritual leaders, friends, or family – words move us.
Some days I open my mail and find the perfect message waiting for me. So, from me to you, enjoy these words from C.S. Lewis, Irwin Shaw, and, Greenleaf Whittier – they’re worth repeating.
“No book is really worth reading at the age of ten which is not equally – and often far more – worth reading at the age of fifty and beyond.” ― C.S. Lewis
“There are too many books I haven’t read, too many places I haven’t seen, too many memories I haven’t kept long enough.” – Irwin Shaw
“Of all sad words of mouth or pen, the saddest are these: it might have been.” –John Greenleaf Whittier
“You can make anything by writing.” ― C.S. Lewis Click to Tweet

I like just about anything C.S. Lewis has to say. This quote touches me especially, because I read far beyond my age when I was 10. I understood, but now what I understand has far more meaning. For instance: I’m re-reading all of Dickens. Just for starters.

Ooh, that sounds like a wonderful idea. I too read far beyond my age as a child. Books were my oasis and thankfully, I had a mom who encouraged us to read every day. good to hear from you.
