In doing some research for the Inklings stickers I came across this and had a good laugh🤣thought of you bc you’re reading Chesterton right now
Tumblr media
First off: Research for the Inklings stickers? Hooray! Can't wait to see what you come up with!
I love that story! It's got everything--the Chesterton-Shaw frenemy-ship, jokes about Chesterton's weight. (It's even better now that Heretics gave me more details about Chesterton and Shaw's debates.)
Don't forget the story of the woman who came up to Chesterton while WWI was raging and asked, "Why aren't you out at the front?" to which Chesterton replied, " If you will go around to the side, you will see that I am."
Also, this reminded me of maybe my favorite moment in the Chesterton-Shaw friendship: this hilarious letter that Shaw sent to Frances Chesterton. I'm not sure what's better: his elaborate plan to needle Chesterton, the fact that he roped his wife into it, his suggestion to stand there reading at them for 90 minutes, or the fact that Shaw loved Chesterton's work so much he wanted to prompt him to write things Shaw disagreed with.
Actually, my favorite thing about their friendship might be the time Shaw said that if he ever got to heaven, it would be because of the friendship of G.K. Chesterton. (I hope he was right).

“The worst sin towards our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them: that's the essence of inhumanity.”
