Down in adoration falling, Lo! the sacred Host we hail Lo! o'er ancient forms departing, Newer rites of grace prevail Faith for all defects supplying, Where the feeble senses fail.

More quotes by Thomas Aquinas
It must be said that charity can, in no way, exist along with mortal sin.
Thomas Aquinas
There is nothing in your mind which wasn't experienced before hand.
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
It is necessary for the perfection of human society that there should be men who devote their lives to contemplation.
Thomas Aquinas
What does it take to become a saint? Will it.
Thomas Aquinas
Without sanctifying grace it is not possible to refrain long from mortal sin.
Thomas Aquinas
Every cell in us worships God.
Thomas Aquinas
The minister to whom confession is made is the delegate of Christ, Who is the Judge of the living and the dead.
Thomas Aquinas
Faith is God's work within us.
Thomas Aquinas
To love God is something greater than to know Him.
Thomas Aquinas
Love works in a circle, for the beloved moves the lover by stamping a likeness, and the lover then goes out to hold the beloved inreality. Who first was the beginning now becomes the end of motion.
Thomas Aquinas
I cannot understand how anyone conscious of mortal sin can laugh or be merry.
Thomas Aquinas
Future contingents cannot be certain to us, because we know them as such. They can be certain only to God whose understanding is in eternity above time. Just as a man going along a road does not see those who come after him but the man who sees the whole road from a height sees all those who are going along the road at the same time.
Thomas Aquinas
There can be no joy in living without joy in work.
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
Charity, by which God and neighbor are loved, is the most perfect friendship.
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
Charity brings to life again those who are spiritually dead.
Thomas Aquinas
Angels transcend every religion, every philosophy, every creed. In fact Angels have no religion as we know it... Their existence precedes every religious system that has ever existed on Earth.
Thomas Aquinas
Man is closer to God according to his existence in grace than he is according to his existence in nature.
Thomas Aquinas
