Prince Caspain (C.S. Lewis)

“I was wishing that I came of a more honourable lineage.” “You come of the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve,” said Aslan. “And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth. Be content.”

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (C.S. Lewis)

"It means that though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still that she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of Time. But if she could have looked a little further back, into the stillness and darkness before Time began, she would have read there a different incantation.

The Last Battle (C.S. Lewis)
