"Those are the golden sessions . . . when our slippers are on, our feet spread out towards the blaze and our drinks at our elbows; when the whole world, and something beyond the world, opens itself to our minds as we talk; and no one has any claim on or any responsibility for another, but all are freemen and equals as if we had first met an hour ago, while at the same time an Affection mellowed by the years enfolds us. Life - natural life- has no better gift to give. Who could have deserved it?"

C. S. Lewis, "Friendship," The Four Loves
