Author of quotes: Aurelius Augustine

God is closer to you than you are to yourself.

Faith precedes understanding.

Beware of your thoughts, for they are heard in the sky.

Miracles do not contradict nature itself, and what we know about her.

Ask in prayer is not an easy burden, and strong shoulders.

Because often it happens that a non-Christian knows a lot about the earth, the sky and the other elements of the visible world, about the motion and circulation, about the size and distance of the stars, about eclipses of the sun and moon, about the gyre of years and times, the nature of animals, plants, stones and the like, though know so that can protect this knowledge and obvious reasons, and life experience. Meanwhile, it is extremely embarrassing, dangerous, and even fatal when some invalid barely kept from laughing, while listening to a Christian speaking of such subjects supposedly based on the Christian Scriptures, bears such nonsense as that, as they say, hits the mark. And not bad that ridiculed misguided, and that in the eyes of the people, for the salvation of souls which we constantly take care that our writers look as ignorant and because they despised.
In fact, when they notice that any of the Christians err concerning them well known objects, and asserts your ridiculous opinion, referring to our Scriptures, how are they going to believe those Scriptures regarding the resurrection of the dead, the hope of eternal life and the Kingdom of heaven, as soon as they have formed the idea that these Scriptures lie, even in those matters which can be easily verified or on experience, or in numbers? Indeed, it is difficult even to imagine how much grief and sorrow takes the wise brothers deeply ignorant, when they are caught and convicted of absurd and false opinions of those who do not recognize the authority of our Scriptures, defending what I said in the carefree, reckless, shameless lie refer to these sacred books, trying to justify their opinions, or even the memory resulting in entire sayings which they assume to testify in their favor, whereas in reality "don't understand neither what they say nor that that claim".

Who hates the world? Those who tore the truth.

When the water comes, fish eat ants; when the water subsides, the ants eat fish.

The will in us is always free, but not always good.

What we do, we are in the truth do not believe, however do.

I believe that the judges knows the truth only God and maybe the soul of man knows when he leaves this body. ie this grim dungeon.

If you are suffering from the injustice of a bad man - sorry, but it will be two bad people.

In this state, I remember, I was. Here's my heart, o my God, here it is - take a look inside it, the way I remember it. My hope, You Who cleanse me from the impurity of such affections, directing my eyes to You - avoiding the snares of my feet-. I was surprised that the rest of Lula live, because he whom I loved as if he could not die, was dead, and even more surprised that I, his second "I" live when he died. Well someone said of his friend: "half my soul". And I felt that my soul and his soul were one soul in two bodies, and life filled me with horror: I did not want after all to live half a life. Because maybe, and was afraid to die, is not dead he whom I loved so much.

More valor that words kill wars than iron - men.
