I believe it was “God in the Dock”. Either way, Lewis’s massive intellect, wisdom, and insight continue to bless us today. Hard to say which one of his quotes is my favorite, but this one is so applicable and timely. It came to mind immediately.

Very apt. Also shows you how things don't change. There have always been those people. I'm reading "The Brothers Karamazov" and those people existed then, too.
I just finished that book a few days ago and agree with your assessment. These busybodies are endemic to the the entire race. Thus, ceaseless vigilance of our freedom.

I'm impressed that you can remember quotes this well.
I could have sworn I had read that one, although I haven't read "God in the Dock."

What are the odds! And, what an incredible work.
The Have and Have-not battle has been with mankind since his inception.
Yes indeed.
