More Quotes by Augustine of Hippo
Do what you can and pray for what you cannot yet do.
Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by the accidents of time, or place, or circumstances, are brought into closer connection with you.
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.
Trust the past to the mercy of God, the present to His love, and the future to His providence.
God has promised forgiveness to your repentance, but He has not promised tomorrow to your procrastination.
Beware of despairing about yourself: you are commanded to put your trust in God, and not in yourself.
Love and say it with your life.
Remember this. When people choose to withdraw far from a fire, the fire continues to give warmth, but they grow cold. When people choose to withdraw far from light, the light continues to be bright in itself but they are in darkness. This is also the case when people withdraw from God.
Some people, in order to discover God, read books. But there is a great book: the very appearance of created things. Look above you! Look below you! Read it. God, whom you want to discover, never wrote that book with ink. Instead, He set before your eyes the things that He had made. Can you ask for a louder voice than that?
Patience is the companion of wisdom.
