Give me all. I don’t want so much of your time and so much of your money and so much of your work;
I want you. I have not come to torment your natural self, but to
kill it … Hand over the whole natural self, all the desires you
think are innocent as well as the ones you think are wicked … I will
give you a new self instead. In fact, I will give you myself.
(C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity)
