1 We think our childish toys bring us all the happiness there is and our nursery is the whole wide world. But something... Something must drive us out of the nursery to the world of others, and that something is suffering.

— C. S. Lewis (Anthony Hopkins)

2 Why? See, if you love someone, you don't want them to suffer. You can't bear it. You want to take their suffering onto yourself. Even I feel like that. Why doesn't God?

— C. S. Lewis (Anthony Hopkins)

3 I suggest to you that it is because God loves us that he makes us the gift of suffering. To put it another way, pain is God's megaphone to rouse a deaf world.

— C. S. Lewis (Anthony Hopkins)

4 Pain is a tool. If you like, pain is God's megaphone... -Megaphone to rouse a deaf world.

— Joy Davidman (Debra Winger), C. S. Lewis (Anthony Hopkins)

5 The pain now is part of the happiness then. That's the deal.

— C. S. Lewis (Anthony Hopkins)

— Joy Davidman (Debra Winger), C. S. Lewis (Anthony Hopkins)

9 Yeah, do they have room service? -Room service? I used to think that room service was saying your prayers in bed. -Well, you can order some prayers if you want. I will take a gin and tonic.

— Joy Davidman (Debra Winger), C. S. Lewis (Anthony Hopkins)

10 Beastly things, telephones. Ring, ring, ring. Stop what you're doing. Get up. Hurry, hurry. Ring, Ring, Ring. No manners at all, huh?
