Seed of Dragons tells mythic tales of darkness and courage from the dragon’s lair. (Three friends at the campfire telling tales and calling each other names)

This JRR quote fuels our name: "...Though we dared to build

 gods and their houses out of dark and light, 

and sow the seed of dragons, 'twas our right

 (used or misused). The right has not decayed.

 We make still by the law in which we're made."

C.S. Lewis, how did you understand human nature so well?

[Gavin Ortlund @gavinortlund]

“Imaginary evil is romantic and varied; real evil is gloomy, monotonous, barren, boring. Imaginary good is boring; real good is always new, marvelous, intoxicating.”

Simone Weil

An appeal to join us at the magic campfire, where everyone finds the courage you need, and you can say the truth in ways impossible elsewhere. Please re-twee! Thanks.

An enthusiastic ramble about The Book of the New Sun by #genewolfe - never read anything like it, or read anything that reads me so well.

My father-in-law is an author. He is insanely gifted. We were in a bookstore years ago and discovered this on the shelf. I asked him what it would take to write a work of this power and complexity today. I will never forget his answer…
"We can't, we don't know how to do it."

[Dane Ortlund @daneortlund]

Never, in peace or war, commit your virtue or your happiness to the future.

Happy work is best done by the man who takes his long-term plans somewhat lightly and works from moment to moment "as to the Lord."

C. S. Lewis, "Learning in War-Time"

My reading of perhaps the most lovely poem #CSLewis ever wrote, "Love's as Warm as Tears"

"Frodo deserved all honour because he spent every drop of his power of will and body, and that was just sufficient to bring him to the destined point, and no further. Few others, possibly no others of his time, would have got so far." - JRR Tolkien, Letter 192

New discussion from Seed of Dragons, on Tolkien, and not so much why we like him as how we've come to enjoy him even more over the years. #Tolkien #LOTR
