More quotes by St. Jerome
If then you remain constant in faith in the face of trial, the Lord will give you peace and rest for a time in this world, and forever in the next.
St. Jerome
The Church of Christ has been founded by shedding its own blood, not that of others by enduring outrage, not by inflicting it. Persecutions have made it grow martyrdoms have crowned it.
St. Jerome
Let your daughter have first of all the book of Psalms for holiness of heart, and be instructed in the Proverbs of Solomon for her godly life.
St. Jerome
The face is the mirror of the mind, and eyes without speaking confess the secrets of the heart.
St. Jerome
They talk like angels but they live like men.
St. Jerome
No athlete is crowned but in the sweat of his brow.
St. Jerome
A fat stomach never breeds fine thoughts.
St. Jerome
I praise wedlock, I praise marital union, but only because they produce me virgins.
St. Jerome
Early impressions are hard to eradicate from the mind. When once wool has been dyed purple, who can restore it to its previous whiteness?
St. Jerome
Strictly speaking, one should not even rightly compare virginity to marriage because you cannot make a comparison between two things if one is good and the other evil.
St. Jerome
Being over seventy is like being engaged in a war. All our friends are going or gone and we survive amongst the dead and the dying as on a battlefield.
St. Jerome
Woman is the root of all evil.
St. Jerome
A man who is well grounded in the testimonies of the Scripture is the bulwark of the Church.
St. Jerome
Do not marvel at the novelty of the thing, if a Virgin gives birth to God.
St. Jerome
Neither Britain, a land fertile in tyrants, nor the people of Ireland, knew Moses and the prophets.
St. Jerome
No one loves to tell of scandal except to him who loves to hear it. Learn, then, to rebuke and check the detracting tongue by showing that you do not listen to it with pleasure.
St. Jerome
Vanity is truly the motive power that moves humanity, and it is flattery that greases the wheels.
St. Jerome
To ignore Scripture is to ignore Christ.
St. Jerome
Instead of speaking saintly words we must act them.
St. Jerome
Do not let your deeds belie your words, lest when you speak in church someone may say to himself, Why do you not practice what you preach?
St. Jerome
