More quotes by Saint Augustine
Let us leave a little room for reflection in our lives, room too for silence.

Saint Augustine
Do you wish to be great? Then begin by being little. Do you desire to construct a vast and lofty fabric? Think first about the foundations of humility. The higher your structure is to be, the deeper must be its foundation. Modest humility is beauty's crown.
