Wisdom from Miracles by C.S. Lewis

Reading through Miracles. I may have accidentally saved the best of the apologetic
in the "essential collection" for last.

"If it is maintained that anything so small as the Earth must, in any event, be too unimportant to merit the love of the Creator, we reply that no Christian ever supposed we did merit it. Christ did not die for men because they were intrinsically worth dying for, but because He is intrinsically love, and therefore loves infinitely. And what, after all, does the size of a world or a creature tell us about its 'importance' or value?"
