More quotes by Saint Augustine
There is no greater invitation to love than loving first.
Saint Augustine
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
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
God loves each of us as if there were only one of us.
Saint Augustine
Two works of mercy set a person free: Forgive and you will be forgiven, and give and you will receive.
Saint Augustine
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
Why persist in walking difficult and toilsome paths? There is no repose where you are seeking it. Search as you like, it is not where you are looking. You are seeking a happy life in the realm of death, and it will not be found there. How could life be happy where there is no life at all?
Saint Augustine
Unjust laws aren't laws at all.
Saint Augustine
All diseases of Christians are to be ascribed to demons chiefly do they torment freshly-baptized Christians, yea, even the guiltless new-born infants.
Saint Augustine
Love is ever new because it never groweth old.
Saint Augustine
Christ was born of a woman without the man.
Saint Augustine
We do not sin when we adore Christ in the Eucharist we do sin when we do not adore Christ in the Eucharist.
Saint Augustine
In what is necessary, unity in what is not necessary, liberty and in all things charity.
Saint Augustine
Never judge a philosophy by its abuse.
Saint Augustine
God in his omnipotence could not give more, in His wisdom He knew not how to give more, in His riches He had not more to give, than the Eucharist.
Saint Augustine
He who made thee is made in thee. He is made in thee through whom you were made.... Give milk, O mother, to him who is our food give milk to the bread that comes down from heaven.
Saint Augustine
Our life is a gymnasium of desire.... When Christians say God, what do we wish to express? This word is all that we yearn for.
Saint Augustine
This awful catastrophe is not the end but the beginning. History does not end so. It is the way its chapters open.
Saint Augustine
The best minds are not in government. If any were, business would steal them away. -Ronald Reagan In the absence of justice, what is sovereignty but organized robbery?
Saint Augustine
Let us, on both sides, lay aside all arrogance. Let us not, on either side, claim that we have already discovered the truth. Let us seek it together as something which is known to neither of us. For then only may we seek it, lovingly and tranquilly, if there be no bold presumption that it is already discovered and possessed.
Saint Augustine
