C. S. Lewis
Wisdom, Heaven, Soul
C.S. Lewis (1996). “Joyful Christian”, p.227, Simon and Schuster

C. S. Lewis
Heart, Imagination, Heaven
C. S. Lewis (1984). “The Business of Heaven: Daily Readings from C. S. Lewis”, p.314, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

The hills and valleys of Heaven will be to those you now experience not as a copy is to an original, nor as the substitute is to the genuine article, but as the flower to the root, or the diamond to the coal.

C. S. Lewis
Flower, Roots, Heaven
C. S. Lewis (2003). “A Mind Awake: An Anthology of C. S. Lewis”, p.183, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

C. S. Lewis
Real, Heaven, Mind
C. S. Lewis (2003). “A Mind Awake: An Anthology of C. S. Lewis”, p.185, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
