We are far too easily pleased.

It would seem our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine  what is meant by the offer of a holiday at sea. We are far too easily pleased. – C. S. Lewis
