@gadgetmann ...it must have been Mark Twain or Lincoln:) -
@mattklewis A friend found it in the preface, page ix, of MacMillan Paperbacks ed. from 1962. -
@gadgetmann Cool. So, to be clear, it is Lewis in the Screwtape Letters, but in the preface?(I'm always worried about these internet quotes) -
@mattklewis I was hoisted by my own petard (kindle). I should have said it is not in the the original work because that is all I knew. -
@gadgetmann No worries. I appreciate you checking!
