Flannery O'Connor on C.S. Lewis

As a guy who loves discovering new quotes from great authors, it's an added bonus when I find great authors talking about each other. Here's an amusingly candid remark from Flannery O'Connor on C.S. Lewis.

This book of C.S. Lewis on prayer is a good one but I don't like to pray any better for reading it. I also just read one of his called Miracles, which is very fine. Deceptively simple. You really need to read every sentence twice. Go among the biblical scholars, says he, as a sheep among wolves. - "Habit of Being"

I wonder what Lewis would have said about O'Connor.
