C.S. Lewis in "Mere Christianity" said about Jesus, “A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic—on the level with a man who says he is a poached egg—or he would be the devil of hell. You must take your choice.

Some people can be found
Who spend their lives in grumbling
At ev’rything around;
O yes, they always grumble,
No matter what we say,
For these are chronic grumblers
And they grumble night and day.
They grumble when it’s raining,
They grumble when it’s dry,
And if the
