More quotes by Saint Augustine
In the house of God there is never ending festival the angel choir makes eternal holiday the presence of God's face gives joy that never fails.
Saint Augustine
What is time? If I am not asked, I know if I am asked, I don't.
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
There is no remedy so powerful against the heat of concupiscence as the remembrance of our Savior's Passion. In all my difficulties I never found anything so efficacious as the wounds of Christ: In them I sleep secure from them I derive new life.
Saint Augustine
In my deepest wound I saw your glory, and it dazzled me.
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
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
Mary heard God's word and kept it, and so she is blessed. She kept God's truth in her mind, a nobler thing than carrying his body in her womb.
Saint Augustine
Fortitude is the disposition of soul which enables us to despise all inconveniences and the loss of things not in our power.
Saint Augustine
Love, and do what you will. If you keep silence, do it out of love. If you cry out, do it out of love. If you refrain from punishing, do it out of love.
Saint Augustine
Although among heretics and schismatics there is the same Baptism, nevertheless, the remission of sins is not operative among them because of the very rottenness of discord and wickedness of dissension ... Baptism was in them, but it did not profit them outside the Church ... Outside the Church, Baptism works death because of discord.
Saint Augustine
Punishment is justice for the unjust.
Saint Augustine
What are kingdoms without justice? They're just gangs of bandits.
Saint Augustine
Free curiosity is of more value in learning than harsh discipline.
Saint Augustine
It is not in virtue of its liberty that the human will attains to grace, it is much rather by grace that it attains to liberty.
Saint Augustine
Moral character is assessed not by what a man knows but by what he loves
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
Singing is a lover's thing.
Saint Augustine
Don't go outside get back to yourself, in the inner man lies the Truth.
Saint Augustine
So you see how endlessly futile and fruitless it would be if we wanted to refute their objections every time they obstinately resolved not to think through what they say but merely to speak, just so long as they contradict our arguments in any way they can.
Saint Augustine
