A good quote

From C.S. Lewis, An Experiment in Criticism:


But in reading great literature I become

a thousand men and yet remain

myself. Like the night sky in the Greek

poem, I see with a myriad eyes, but it

is still I who see. Here, as in worship,

in love, in moral action, and in knowing,

I transcend myself; and am never

more myself than when I do.
