More quotes by Saint Augustine
You have found that you were more secure before you accumulated so much. See what greed has imposed on you: You have filled your house and now you fear burglars. You have hoarded money and lost sleep. See what greed has commanded you: Do this! And you did it.
Saint Augustine
I learned most, not from those who taught me but from those who talked with me.
Saint Augustine
Lust indulged became habit, and habit unresisted became necessity.
Saint Augustine
If you understand, it is not God.

Saint Augustine
There are wolves within, and there are sheep without.
Saint Augustine

Saint Augustine
God is more truly imagined than expressed, and He exists more truly than He is imagined.
Saint Augustine
Temporal punishments are suffered by some in this life only, by some after death, by some both here and hereafter, but all of them before that last and strictest judgment. But not all who suffer temporal punishments after death will come to eternal punishments, which are to follow after that judgment.
Saint Augustine
Cantare amantis est ... Singing belongs to one who loves. (s. 336, 1 – PL 38, 1472).
Saint Augustine
Where love is, what can be wanting? Where it is not, what can possibly be profitable?
Saint Augustine
Lord, thou madest us for thyself, and we can find no rest till we find rest in thee.
Saint Augustine
When I come to be united to thee with all my being, then there will be no more pain and toil for me, and my life shall be a real life, being wholly filled by thee.
Saint Augustine
Without God, man cannot, and without man, God will not.
Saint Augustine
