“You can't get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.”

Clive Staples Lewis (1898–1963) Christian apologist, novelist, and Medievalist

As quoted in Of This and Other Worlds (1982) by Walter Hooper, Preface, p. 9

“Give me an adventure. I’m not talking about some massive adventure. Just something that would make getting fired seem small. Something that I might remember when I’m old.”
“I can’t predict the future,” I said, “but based on what little I know so far, I’m afraid it has to be a massive adventure or nothing.”
“Great!”
“Probably the kind of adventure that ends in a mass burial.”

“It seems to me that most of us get all the adventure we are capable of digesting.”

Robertson Davies book The Diary of Samuel Marchbanks

The Diary of Samuel Marchbanks (1947)
Context: It seems to me that most of us get all the adventure we are capable of digesting. Personally, I have never had to fight a dozen pirates single-handed, and I have never jumped from a moving express-train onto the back of a horse, and I have never been discovered in the harem of the Grand Turk. I am glad of all these things. They are too rich for my digestion, and I do not long for them. I have all the close shaves and narrow squeaks in my life that my constitution will stand, and my daily struggles with bureaucrats, taxgatherers and uplifters are more exhausting than any encounters with mere buccaneers on the Spanish Main.

“Enough of what?
Enough of behaving as you do.
Oh, I can never get enough. Which, incidentally, is what you sister said to me when”
