Quote of the Day — C.S. Lewis (1954)

C.S. Lewis, c.1949 (age 50)
(source: Wikipedia)
Found while reading The Chronicles of Narnia. This particular quote is from the end of The Horse and His Boy, regarding natural limits to a just ruler's power:
The King's under the law, for it's the law makes him a king. Hast no more power to start away from thy crown than any sentry from his post. (emphasis added)
I can think of nothing to add to that.

Stay safe.

    Apparently, tomorrow Emperor Boma the First will extra-Constitutionally extend amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. What will be done? I'm not holding my breath.

      Stay tuned. I've got another post idea in the works that touches on that one. :)
