Thomas Aquinas
In order for a war to be just, three things are necessary. First, the authority of the sovereign... Secondly, a just cause... Thirdly... a rightful intention.
Thomas Aquinas
As mariners are guided into port by the shining of a star, so Christians are guided to heaven by Mary.
Thomas Aquinas
Peace is the work of justice indirectly, in so far as justice removes the obstacles to peace but it is the work of charity (love) directly, since charity, according to its very notion, causes peace.
Thomas Aquinas
The Angel's bread is made the Bread of man today.
Thomas Aquinas
It is requisite for the relaxation of the mind that we make use, from time to time, of playful deeds and jokes.
Thomas Aquinas
