C.S. Lewis β 'Isn't it funny how day by day nothing changes, but when we look back everything is different.'
Ahh yes this is one of my favorite quotes and one I think about a lot.
Also:
Child, all the service thou hast done to Tash, I account as service done to me. . . . because we are opposites, I take to me the services which thou hast done to him. For I and he are of such different kinds that no service which is vile can be done to me, and none which is not vile can be done to him.
Therefore if any man swear by Tash and keep his oath for the oathβs sake, it is by me that he has truly sworn, though he know it not, and it is I who reward him. And if any man do a cruelty in my name, then, though he says the name Aslan, it is Tash whom he serves and by Tash his deed is accepted.

Life has been remarkably stagnant ever since I was born. The more things change, the more they stay the same. It just takes a bit of time to realize it and recognize the patterns.
