More quotes by Saint Augustine

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
When, therefore, man lives according to man, not according to God, he is like the devil.
Saint Augustine
It was in His flesh that Christ walked among us and it is His flesh that He has given us to eat for our salvation but no one eats of this flesh without having first adored it . . . and not only do we not sin in thus adoring it, but we would be sinning if we did not do so.
Saint Augustine
Nothing is so much to be shunned as sex relations.
Saint Augustine
God loves each of us as if there were only one of us.
Saint Augustine
We both exist and know that we exist, and rejoice in this knowledge.
Saint Augustine
Doubt is but another element of faith.
Saint Augustine
We make ourselves a ladder out of our vices if we trample the vices themselves underfoot.
Saint Augustine
