In the house of God there is never ending festival the angel choir makes eternal holiday the presence of God's face gives joy that never fails.

Image
Although among heretics and schismatics there is the same Baptism, nevertheless, the remission of sins is not operative among them because of the very rottenness of discord and wickedness of dissension ... Baptism was in them, but it did not profit them outside the Church ... Outside the Church, Baptism works death because of discord.
Saint Augustine
Image
Without God, man cannot, and without man, God will not.

...If humility does not precede all that we do, our efforts are fruitless.

Saint Augustine
Image
What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.
Saint Augustine
Image
The measure of charity may be taken from the want of desires. As desires diminish in the soul, charity increases in it and when it no longer feels any desire, then it possesses perfect charity.
Saint Augustine
Image
War should we waged without love of violence, cruelty, or enmity.
Saint Augustine
Image
Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden.
Saint Augustine
Image
You can live, provided you live that is, you can live for ever, provided you live a good life.
Saint Augustine
Image
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
Image
Lust indulged became habit, and habit unresisted became necessity.
Saint Augustine
Image
If by fate anyone means the will or power of God, let him keep his meaning but mend his language for fate commonly means a necessary process which will have its way apart from the will of God and men.
Saint Augustine
Image
For if it is not lawful to take the law into our own hands and slay even a guilty person, whose death no public sentence has warranted. Then certainly he who kills himself is a homicide, and so much the guiltier of his own death as he was more innocent of that offence for which he doomed himself to die.
