More quotes by Thomas Aquinas
To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. To one without faith, no explanation is possible.
Thomas Aquinas
The fact that the evil ones, as long as they live, can be corrected from their errors does not prohibit that they may be justly executed, for the danger which threatens from their way of life is greater and more certain than the good which may be expected from their improvement.
Thomas Aquinas
Clearly the person who accepts the Church as an infallible guide will believe whatever the Church teaches.
Thomas Aquinas
The servants of God...whether provoked by word or work, by keeping themselves tranquil and peaceful, evince a perfect nobleness of soul.
Thomas Aquinas
God himself would not permit evil in this world if good did not come of it for the benefit and harmony of the universe.
Thomas Aquinas
It is not possible to be ignorant of the end of things if we know their beginning.
Thomas Aquinas
The image of God always abides in the soul, whether this image be obsolete and clouded over as to amount to almost nothing or whether it be obscured or disfigured, as is the case with sinners or whether it be clear and beautiful as is the case with the just.
Thomas Aquinas
He who does not embrace the teaching of the Church does not have the habit of faith.
Thomas Aquinas
Mercy without justice is the mother of dissolution justice without mercy is cruelty.
Thomas Aquinas

Thomas Aquinas
All my words are but chaff next to the faith of a simple man.
Thomas Aquinas

Thomas Aquinas
Mistakes are made on two counts: an argument is either based on error or incorrectly developed.
Thomas Aquinas
Not everything that is more difficult is more meritorious.
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
The soul is like an uninhabited world that comes to life only when God lays His head against us.
Thomas Aquinas
He that obstinately denieth the truth before men upon earth, wilfully refuseth his soul's health in heaven.
Thomas Aquinas
There would not be a perfect likeness of God in the universe if all things were of one grade of being.
Thomas Aquinas
