Saint Augustine
What are kingdoms without justice? They're just gangs of bandits.
Saint Augustine
Make me a captive Lord, then I shall be truly free.
Saint Augustine
The spiritual virtue of a sacrament is like light although it passes among the impure, it is not polluted.
Saint Augustine

Saint Augustine
The honors of this world, what are they but puff, and emptiness, and peril of falling?
Saint Augustine
Consequently, heretics and schismatics, separated from the unity of this Body, are able to receive the same Sacrament, but with no benefit to themselves indeed, more to their own harm, in that they are judged the more severely rather than being liberated.
Saint Augustine
All those who belong to Jesus Christ are fastened with Him to the cross.
Saint Augustine
Six is a number perfect in itself, and not because God created the world in six days rather the contrary is true. God created the world in six days because this number is perfect, and it would remain perfect, even if the work of the six days did not exist.
Saint Augustine
Oh, God, to know you is life. To serve You is freedom. To praise you is the soul's joy and delight. Guard me with the power of Your grace here and in all places. Now and at all times, forever. Amen.
Saint Augustine
It is not often that we use language correctly usually we use it incorrectly, though we understand each others meaning.
Saint Augustine
Our heart is restless until it rests in You.
Saint Augustine
Eternity is the now that does not pass away.
Saint Augustine
How can the past and future be, when the past no longer is, and the future is not yet? As for the present, if it were always present and never moved on to become the past, it would not be time, but eternity.
Saint Augustine
Be always displeased at what thou art, if thou desirest to attain to what thou art not.
Saint Augustine
When I come to be united to thee with all my being, then there will be no more pain and toil for me, and my life shall be a real life, being wholly filled by thee.
Saint Augustine
For whenever unbaptized persons die confessing Christ, this confession is of the same efficacy for the remission of sins as if they were washed in the sacred font of baptism.
Saint Augustine
Within the Church, sins are forgiven in three ways: by baptism, by prayer, and by the greater humility of penance yet God does not forgive sins except to the baptized.
Saint Augustine
The Bible was composed in such a way that as beginners mature, its meaning grows with them.
Saint Augustine
I was unhappy and so is every soul unhappy which is tied to its love for mortal things when it loses them, it is torn in pieces, and it is then that it comes to realize the unhappiness which was there even before it lost them.
Saint Augustine
