“I have no intention of explaining how the correspondence, which I now offer to the public, fell into my hands.
“There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them. They themselves are equally pleased by both errors and hail a materialist or a magician with the same delight.
“Readers are advised to remember that the devil is a liar. Not everything that Screwtape says should be assumed to be true, even from his own angle.
“There is wishful thinking in Hell as well as on Earth.”
C.S. Lewis, July 5, 1941
