"My point is not that these dangers cannot be averted. They are averted daily by thousands of couples, but they are not averted by love itself. If love is to remain, it must be supported by outside help.... You need a firm will to justice, you need a will already pretty well formed or disciplined. In the long run you need the grace of God.... Its rather like a garden. A garden is a glorious thing, full of life, and giving us life. But you must not trust your garden to weed itself or fence itself, or prune itself, or anything of that sort. It hasn't got that kind of goodness. A garden left to nature will soon not be a garden. It is the same with our passions. They also are life giving. But when God planted that garden, he placed a man over it to dress it and set the man under Himself."
(C.S. Lewis)

"Come out, look back, and then you will see... this astonishing
cataract of bears, babies, and bananas: this immoderate deluge of
atoms, orchids, oranges, cancers, canaries, fleas, gases, tornadoes
and toads. How could you ever have thought this was the ultimate
reality? How could you ever have thought that it was merely a
stage-set for the moral drama of men and women?
Nature is herself. Offer her neither worship nor contempt."
