More quotes by Saint Augustine
Go forth on your path, as it exists only through your walking.
Saint Augustine
So give to the poor I'm begging you, I'm warning you, I'm commanding you, I'm ordering you.
Saint Augustine
Venerate the martyrs, praise, love, proclaim, honor them. But worship the God of the martyrs.
Saint Augustine
The Devil invented gambling.
Saint Augustine
We should never use the truth to wound.
Saint Augustine
Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you.
Saint Augustine
One never errs more safely than when one errs by too much loving the truth.
Saint Augustine
The mind commands the body and is instantly obeyed. The mind commands itself and meets resistance. The mind commands the hand to move, and it so easy that one hardly distinguishes the order from its execution. Yet mind is mind and hand is body. The mind orders the mind to will. The recipient of the order is itself, yet it does not perform it.
Saint Augustine
Cyprian was not issuing a new decree but was keeping to the most solid belief of the Church in order to correct some who thought that infants ought not be baptized before the eighth day after their birth. . . . He agreed with certain of his fellow bishops that a child is able to be duly baptized as soon as he is born.
Saint Augustine
It seems to me that an unjust law is no law at all.
Saint Augustine
Do not be afraid to throw yourself on the Lord! He will not draw back and let you fall! Put your worries aside and throw yourself on him He will welcome you and heal you.
Saint Augustine
There never can have been, and never can be, and there never shall be any sin without pride.
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
There is nothing more serious than the sacrilege of schism because there is no just cause for severing the unity of the Church.
Saint Augustine
Repentant tears wash out the stain of guilt.
Saint Augustine
If a shameless woman expects to be defiled and then dies of her fierce love because you do not consent, will chastity also be homicide?
Saint Augustine
Complete abstinence is easier than perfect moderation.
Saint Augustine
While the best men are guided by love, most mean are still goaded by fear.
Saint Augustine
The same divine authority that forbids the killing of a human being establishes certain exceptions, as when God authorizes killing by a general law or when He gives an explicit commission to an individual for a limited time.
Saint Augustine
How high a price we pay for the burden of habit! I am fitted for life here where I do not want to be, I want to live there but am unfit for it, and on both counts I am miserable.
Saint Augustine
