When, therefore, man lives according to man, not according to God, he is like the devil.
Saint Augustine
Image
The reward of patience Is patience.
Saint Augustine
Image
If you are suffering from a bad man's injustice, forgive him lest there be two bad men.
Saint Augustine
Image
Every city is a living body.
Saint Augustine
Image
If a parricide is more wicked than anyone who commits homicide-because he kills not merely a man but a near relative-without doubt worse still is he who kills himself, because there is none nearer to a man than himself.
Saint Augustine
Image
What you are must always displease you, if you would attain to that which you are not.
Saint Augustine
Image
The argument is at an end.
Saint Augustine
Image
Your persistent longing is your persistent voice. But when love grows cold, the heart grows silent. Burning love is the outcry of the heart! If you are filled with longing all the time, you will keep crying out, and if your love perseveres, your cry will be heard without fail.
Saint Augustine
Image
War should we waged without love of violence, cruelty, or enmity.
Saint Augustine
Image
If you don't believe it you won't understand it.
Saint Augustine
Image
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
Image
To my God a heart of flame To my fellow man a heart of love To myself a heart of steel.
Saint Augustine
Image
The one who is good, is free even being a slave the one who is bad remains a slave even being a king.
Saint Augustine
Image
The love of our neighbor hath its bounds in each man's love of himself.
Saint Augustine
Image
Not to give to those in need what is to you superfluous is akin to fraud.
Saint Augustine
Image
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
Image
There are wolves within, and there are sheep without.
Saint Augustine
Image
Seek not abroad, for in the inner man dwells the truth.
Saint Augustine
Image
Drunkenness is a flattering devil, a sweet poison, a pleasant sin, which whosoever hath, hath not himself, which whosoever doth commit, doth not commit sin, but he himself is wholly sin.
Saint Augustine
Image
Give me yourself, O my God, give yourself back to me. Lo, I love you, but if my love is too mean, let me love more passionately. I cannot gauge my love, nor know how far it fails, how much more love I need for my life to set its course straight into your arms, never swerving until hidden in the covert of your face.
Saint Augustine
