More quotes by Thomas Aquinas
The things that we love tell us what we are.
Thomas Aquinas
To disparage the dictate of reason is equivalent to contemning the command of God.
Thomas Aquinas
The truth of our faith becomes a matter of ridicule among the infidels if any Catholic, not gifted with the necessary scientific learning, presents as dogma what scientific scrutiny shows to be false.
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
Give, expecting nothing there of.
Thomas Aquinas
To convert somebody go and take them by the hand and guide them.
Thomas Aquinas
It is necessary to posit something which is necessary of itself, and has no cause of its necessity outside of itself but is the cause of necessity in other things. And all people call this thing God.
Thomas Aquinas
Beware of the person of one book.
Thomas Aquinas
There is within every soul a thirst for happiness and meaning.
Thomas Aquinas
No man truly has joy unless he lives in love.
Thomas Aquinas
Love follows knowledge.
Thomas Aquinas
For just as the first general precepts of the law of nature are self-evident to one in possession of natural reason, and have no need of promulgation, so also that of believing in God is primary and self-evident to one who has faith: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is.
Thomas Aquinas
It seems that God does not exist because if one of two contraries be infinite, the other would be altogether destroyed. But the word God means that He is infinite goodness. If, therefore, God existed, there would be no evil discoverable but there is evil in the world. Therefore God does not exist.
Thomas Aquinas
Not everyone who is enlightened by an angel knows that he is enlightened by him.
Thomas Aquinas
I cannot go on.... All that I have written seems to me like so much straw compared to what I have seen and what has been revealed to me.
Thomas Aquinas
The custom of the Church has very great authority and ought to be jealously observed in all things.
Thomas Aquinas
If a man deliberately abstains from wine to such an extent that he does serious harm to his nature, he will not be free from blame.
Thomas Aquinas
Hold firmly that our faith is identical with that of the ancients. Deny this, and you dissolve the unity of the Church.
Thomas Aquinas
The Blessed Eucharist is the perfect Sacrament of the Lord's Passion, since It contains Christ Himself and his Passion.
Thomas Aquinas
If someone knows from experience that daily Communion increases fervor without lessening reverence, then let him go every day. But if someone finds that reverence is lessened and devotion not much increased, then let him sometimes abstain, so as to draw near afterwards with better dispositions.
Thomas Aquinas
