Anger is a weed hate is the tree.
More Quotes from Saint Augustine of Hippo:
Though he avoided outright endorsement of the view, fifth-century Church Father Saint Augustine was clearly familiar with the theory of the spherical earth 'They those who believe that 'there are men on the other side of the earth' fail to observe that even if the world is held to be global or rounded in shape, or if some process of reasoning should prove this to be the case, it would still not necessarily follow that the land on the opposite side is not covered by masses of water.'Saint Augustine of Hippo
Understanding is the reward of faith. Therefore seek not to understand that thou mayst believe, but believe that thou mayst understand.
Saint Augustine of Hippo
To be under pressure is inescapable. Pressure takes place through all the world war, siege, the worries of state. We all know men who grumble under these pressures and complain. They are cowards. They lack splendour. But there is another sort of man who is under the same pressure but does not complain, for it is the friction which polishes him. It is the pressure which refines and makes him noble.
Saint Augustine of Hippo
God will not suffer man to have knowledge of things to come for if he had prescience of his prosperity, he would be careless and understanding of his adversity, he would be senseless.
Saint Augustine of Hippo
If bodies please thee, praise God on occasion of them, and turn back thy love upon their Maker lest in these things which please thee, thou displease. If souls please thee, be they loved in God for they too are mutable, but in Him they are firmly established.
Saint Augustine of Hippo
