"Better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all."

- St. Augustine

"It is love that asks, that seeks, that knocks, that finds, and that is faithful to what it finds."

- St. Augustine

"As they were looking on, so we too gaze on his wounds as he hangs. We see his blood as he dies. We see the price offered by the redeemer, touch the scars of his resurrection. He bows his head, as if to kiss you. His heart is made bare open, as it were, in love to you. His arms are extended that he may embrace you. His whole body is displayed for your redemption. Ponder how great these things are. Let all this be rightly weighed in your mind: as he was once fixed to the cross in every part of his body for you, so he may now be fixed in every part of your soul."

- St. Augustine

"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 the misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like."

- St. Augustine

"Nothing so clearly discovers a spiritual man as his treatment of an erring brother."

- St. Augustine
