More quotes by Thomas Aquinas
Wonder is the desire of knowledge.
Thomas Aquinas
Just as in one man there is one soul and one body, yet many members even so the Catholic Church is one body, having many members. The soul that quickens this body is the Holy Spirit and therefore in the Creed after confessing our belief in the Holy Spirit, we are bid to believe in the Holy Catholic Church.
Thomas Aquinas

Thomas Aquinas

Thomas Aquinas
Anger and the like are attributed to God on account of a similitude of effect. Thus, because to punish is properly the act of an angry man, God's punishment is metaphorically spoken of as His anger.
Thomas Aquinas
The celestial bodies are the cause of all that takes place in the sublunar world.
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
Happiness is secured through virtue it is a good attained by man's own will.
Thomas Aquinas
The Cross to me is certain salvation. The Cross is that which I ever adore. The Cross of the Lord is with me. The Cross is my refuge.
Thomas Aquinas

Thomas Aquinas
Friendship is the source of the greatest pleasures, and without friends even the most agreeable pursuits become tedious.
Thomas Aquinas
Obedience unites us so closely to God that it in a way transforms us into Him, so that we have no other will but His. If obedience is lacking, even prayer cannot be pleasing to God.
Thomas Aquinas
Love follows knowledge.
Thomas Aquinas
Faith is God's work within us.
Thomas Aquinas
The highest perfection of human life consists in the mind of man being detached from care, for the sake of God.
Thomas Aquinas
The knowledge of God is the cause of things. For the knowledge of God is to all creatures what the knowledge of the artificer is to things made by his art.
Thomas Aquinas
Any error about creation also leads to an error about God.
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
He who is dying of hunger must be fed rather than taught.
Thomas Aquinas
