More quotes by Saint Augustine
The wicked exist in this world either to be converted or that through them the good may exercise patience.
Saint Augustine
The desire for fame tempts even noble minds.
Saint Augustine
If bodies please thee, praise God on occasion of them, and turn back thy love upon their Maker lest in these things which please thee, thou displease. If souls please thee, be they loved in God: for they too are mutable, but in Him they are firmly established.
Saint Augustine
This world's a bubble.
Saint Augustine
That there should be some fire even after this life is not incredible, and it can be inquired into and either be discovered or left hidden whether some of the faithful may be saved, some more slowly and some more quickly in the greater or lesser degree in which they loved the good things that perish, through a certain purgatorial fire.
Saint Augustine
Whoever is still seeking for miracles so that he may believe is himself a wonder, who does not believe while the world around him does.
Saint Augustine
Because I do it with one small ship, I am called a terrorist. You do it with a whole fleet and are called an emperor.
Saint Augustine
Seek not abroad, for in the inner man dwells the truth.
Saint Augustine

Saint Augustine
He pleaseth God whom God pleaseth.
Saint Augustine
Two works of mercy set a person free: Forgive and you will be forgiven, and give and you will receive.
Saint Augustine
Woman was merely man's helpmate, a function which pertains to her alone. She is not the image of God but as far as man is concerned, he is by himself the image of God.
Saint Augustine
Even in waging war, cherish the spirit of peace-maker that, by conquering those whom you attack, you may lead them back to the advantages of peace.
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
Understanding is the wages of faith.
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
Our whole business in this Life is to restore to health the eye of the heart whereby God may be seen.
Saint Augustine
You don't love in your enemies what they are, but what you would have them become by your prayers.
Saint Augustine
Thou hast created us for Thyself, and our heart is not quiet until it rests in 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.
