Do you think I care if Aslan doomes me to death?” said the King. “That would be nothing, nothing at all. Would it not be better to be dead than to have this horrible fear that Aslan has come and is not like the Aslan we have believed in and longed for? It is as if the sun rose one day and were a black sun. ↗
Cilvēkus vienkārši vajag saprast, viņa domā. Un pasauli vajag saprast. Nevar tā – maukt visus kā kurpes uz vienas liestes. Katrai ādai savs izliekums, vīle, kūkums. Lai to ieraudzītu, vajag klusumu un laiku. ↗
When describing nature, a writer should seize upon small details, arranging them so that the reader will see an image in his mind after he closes his eyes. For instance: you will capture the truth of a moonlit night if you'll write that a gleam like starlight shone from the pieces of a broken bottle, and then the dark, plump shadow of a dog or wolf appeared. You will bring life to nature only if you don't shrink from similes that liken its activities to those of humankind." (Letter to Alexander Chekhov, May 10, 1886) ↗
