More quotes by Thomas Aquinas
God has no need for our worship. It is we who need to show our gratitude for what we have received.
Thomas Aquinas
The highest manifestation of life consists in this: that a being governs its own actions. A thing which is always subject to the direction of another is somewhat of a dead thing.
Thomas Aquinas
O saving Victim, opening wide The gate of heaven to man below, Our foes press on from every side, Thine aid supply, Thy strength bestow.
Thomas Aquinas
All the efforts of the human mind cannot exhaust the essence of a single fly.
Thomas Aquinas
The perfection of the effect demonstrates the perfection of the cause, for a greater power brings about a more perfect effect. But God is the most perfect agent. Therefore, things created by Him obtain perfection from Him. So, to detract from the perfection of creatures is to detract from the perfection of divine power.
Thomas Aquinas
For those with faith, no evidence is necessary for those without it, no evidence will suffice.
Thomas Aquinas
Man is closer to God according to his existence in grace than he is according to his existence in nature.
Thomas Aquinas
Every truth without exception- and whoever may utter it- is from the Holy Spirit.
Thomas Aquinas
Perfection of moral virtue does not wholly take away the passions, but regulates them.
Thomas Aquinas
Mistakes are made on two counts: an argument is either based on error or incorrectly developed.
Thomas Aquinas

Thomas Aquinas
God is never angry for His sake, only for ours.
Thomas Aquinas
He who is dying of hunger must be fed rather than taught.
Thomas Aquinas
One cannot use an evil action with reference to a good intention.
Thomas Aquinas
Moral science is better occupied when treating of friendship than of justice.
Thomas Aquinas
The greatest kindness one can render to any man consists in leading him from error to truth.
Thomas Aquinas
Natural inclinations are present in things from God, who moves all things. So it is impossible for the natural inclinations of a species to be toward evil in itself. But there is in all perfect animals a natural inclination toward carnal union. Therefore it is impossible for carnal union to be evil in itself.
Thomas Aquinas
Whenever God wakes in us, our thinking becomes clear - nothing is missing.
Thomas Aquinas
The greatness of the human being consists in this: that it is capable of the universe.
Thomas Aquinas
The happy man in this life needs friends.
Thomas Aquinas
