Thomas Aquinas
If all the sins of the flesh are worthy of condemnation because by them man allows himself to be dominated by that which he has of the animal nature, much more deserving of condemnation are the sins against nature by which man degrades his own animal nature.
Thomas Aquinas

Thomas Aquinas
Just as a man cannot live in the flesh unless he is born in the flesh, even so a man cannot have the spiritual life of grace unless he is born again spiritually. This regeneration is effected by Baptism: Unless a man is born again of water and the Holy Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God (Jn 3:5)
Thomas Aquinas
There is within every soul a thirst for happiness and meaning.
Thomas Aquinas
It is only God who creates. Man merely rearranges.
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
We must love them both, those whose opinions we share and those whose opinions we reject, for both have labored in the search for truth, and both have helped us in finding it.
Thomas Aquinas
The only-begotten Son of God, wanting to make us sharers in His divinity, assumed our nature, so that He, made man, might make men gods.
Thomas Aquinas
A man does not always choose what his guardian angel intends.
Thomas Aquinas
It would be superfluous to receive by faith, things that can be known by natural reason
Thomas Aquinas
