More quotes by St. Jerome

St. Jerome

St. Jerome

St. Jerome

St. Jerome

St. Jerome
True friendship ought never to conceal what it thinks.
St. Jerome
The tired ox treads with a firmer step.
St. Jerome
Even while living in the world, the heart of Mary was so filled with motherly tenderness and compassion for men that no-one ever suffered so much for their own pains, as Mary suffered for the pains of her children.
St. Jerome
The scars of others should teach us caution.
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
