More quotes by Saint Augustine
There never can have been, and never can be, and there never shall be any sin without pride.
Saint Augustine

Saint Augustine
AugustineThe wounds of a friend are better than the kisses of an enemy. To love with sternness is better than to deceive with gentleness.... In Luke [14:23] it is written: Compel people to come in! By threats of the wrath of God, the Father draws souls to his Son.

Saint Augustine
If you understand, it is not God.
Saint Augustine
