More quotes by Saint Augustine
There never can have been, and never can be, and there never shall be any sin without pride.
Saint Augustine
Do you know who the upright of heart are? They are those who wish what God wishes. Therefore, do not try to twist God's will to you own but correct your will to that of God. The will of God is a rule of conduct. By it you have the means of being converted and of correcting your evil ways.
Saint Augustine
Unjust laws aren't laws at all.
Saint Augustine
The desire is thy prayers and if thy desire is without ceasing, thy prayer will also be without ceasing. The continuance of your longing is the continuance of your prayer.
Saint Augustine

Find out how much God has given you and from it take what you need the remainder is needed by others.

Better that I find you, God, and leave the questions unanswered, than to find the answers without finding you.
