More quotes by Thomas Aquinas
One will observe that all things are arranged according to their degrees of beauty and excellence, and that the nearer they are to God, the more beautiful and better they are.
Thomas Aquinas
Without doubt one is allowed to resist against the unjust aggressor to one's life, one's goods or one's physical integrity sometimes, even 'til the aggressor's death... In fact, this act is aimed at preserving one's life or one's goods and to make the aggressor powerless. Thus, it is a good act, which is the right of the victim.
Thomas Aquinas
Christ was either liar, lunatic, or Lord!
Thomas Aquinas

Thomas Aquinas

Any error about creation also leads to an error about God.
Thomas Aquinas
Charity is the form, mover, mother and root of all the virtues.
Thomas Aquinas
He who does not embrace the teaching of the Church does not have the habit of faith.

God is not related to creatures as though belonging to a different genus, but as transcending every genus, and as the principle of all genera.

Prostitution in the towns is like the cesspool in the palace take away the cesspool and the palace will become an unclean and evil smelling-place.
