Just came across these quotes by St Augustine:
- A thing is not necessarily true because badly uttered, nor false because spoken magnificently.
- Find out how much God has given you and from it take what you need; the remainder is needed by others.
- God had one Son on earth without sin, but never one without suffering.
- Hear the other side.
- If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself.
- Love is the beauty of the soul.
- The desire is thy prayers; and if thy desire is without ceasing, thy prayer will also be without ceasing. The continuance of your longing is the continuance of your prayer.
- What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.
