Nothing whatever pertaining to godliness and real holiness can be accomplished without grace.
— Saint Augustine (354-430)
In confession you…
If you excuse yourself in confession, you shut up sin within your soul, and shut out pardon.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
Venerate the martyrs…
Venerate the martyrs, praise, love, proclaim, honor them. But worship the God of the martyrs.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
At the Eucharist…
At the Eucharist we receive what we are and we become what we receive.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
Whoever looks in the Church…
Whoever looks in the Church for something other than Christ is a mercenary.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
