Thou movest us to delight in praising Thee for Thou hast formed us for Thyself, and our hearts are restless till they find rest in Thee.
Saint Augustine
Image
Just think of the illimitable abundance and the marvelous loveliness of light, or of the beauty of the sun and moon and stars.
Saint Augustine
Image
I make bold to say that it is profitable for the proud to fall, in order that they may be humbled in that for which they have exalted themselves.
Saint Augustine
Image
Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden.
Saint Augustine
Image
Punishment is justice for the unjust.
Saint Augustine
Image
Bad company is like a nail driven into a post, which, after the first and second blow, may be drawn out with little difficulty but being once driven up to the head, the pincers cannot take hold to draw it out, but which can only be done by the destruction of the wood.
Saint Augustine
Image
There never can have been, and never can be, and there never shall be any sin without pride.
Saint Augustine

Modo, et modo, non habebent modum. By-and-by has no end.
Saint Augustine
Image
Go forth on your path, as it exists only through your walking.
Saint Augustine
Image
Now the Apostle, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, says, Knowledge inflates: but love edifies. The only correct inerpretation of this saying is that knowledge is valuable when charity informs it. Without charity, knowledge inflates that is, it exalts man to an arrogance which is nothing but a kind of windy emptiness.
Saint Augustine
Image
They, then, who are destined to die, need not be careful to inquire what death they are to die, but into what place death will usher them.
Saint Augustine
Image
Longing desire prayeth always, though the tongue be silent. If thou art ever longing, thou art ever praying.
Saint Augustine
Image
Some people, in order to discover God, read books. But there is a great book: the very appearance of created things. Look above you! Look below you! Read it. God, whom you want to discover, never wrote that book with ink. Instead, He set before your eyes the things that He had made. Can you ask for a louder voice than that?
Saint Augustine
Image
It is love that asks, that seeks, that knocks, that finds, and that is faithful to what it finds.
Saint Augustine
Image
For what am I to myself without You, but a guide to my own downfall?
Saint Augustine
Image
Love God, then do what you will.
Saint Augustine
Image
For, as it is written in the book of the Prophets: 'And the angel that spoke in me, said to me...' He does not say, 'Spoke to me' but 'Spoke in me'.
Saint Augustine
Image
There is another form of temptation, even more fraught with danger. This is the disease of curiosity. It is this which drives us to try and discover the secrets of nature, those secrets which are beyond our understanding, which can avail us nothing and which man should not wish to learn.
Saint Augustine

Jesus took His flesh from the flesh of Mary
Saint Augustine
Image
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
