More quotes by Thomas Aquinas
Whenever God wakes in us, our thinking becomes clear - nothing is missing.
Thomas Aquinas
It [covetousness] is a sin against God, just as all mortal sins, in as much as man condemns things eternal for the sake of temporal things.
Thomas Aquinas
It is only God who creates. Man merely rearranges.
Thomas Aquinas
The meaning of what is said is according to the motive for saying it: because things are not subject to speech, but speech to things. Therefore we should take account of the motive of the lawgiver, rather than of his very words.
Thomas Aquinas
The greatness of the human being consists in this: that it is capable of the universe.
Thomas Aquinas
Even as in the blessed in heaven there will be most perfect charity, so in the damned there will be the most perfect hate. Wherefore as the saints will rejoice in all goods, so will the damned grieve for all goods. Consequently the sight of the happiness of the saints will give them very great pain.
Thomas Aquinas
It must be said that charity can, in no way, exist along with mortal sin.
Thomas Aquinas
In the realm of evil thoughts none induces to sin as much as do thoughts that concern the pleasure of the flesh.
Thomas Aquinas
Faith is God's work within us.
Thomas Aquinas
Humility is the mark of a genuine disciple.
Thomas Aquinas
To convert somebody go and take them by the hand and guide them.
Thomas Aquinas
There is nothing in your mind which wasn't experienced before hand.
Thomas Aquinas
There is but one Church in which men find salvation, just as outside the ark of Noah it was not possible for anyone to be saved.
Thomas Aquinas
There can be no joy in living without joy in work.
Thomas Aquinas
Reason in man is rather like God in the world.
Thomas Aquinas
He who does not embrace the teaching of the Church does not have the habit of faith.
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
Moral science is better occupied when treating of friendship than of justice.
Thomas Aquinas
The custom of the Church has very great authority and ought to be jealously observed in all things.
Thomas Aquinas
By the divine providence [animals] are intended for man's use... Hence it is not wrong for man to make use of them, either by killing or in any other way whatsoever.
Thomas Aquinas
