Saint Augustine

Famous quotes containing the words saint and/or augustine:

    “This Light inspires, and plays upon
    The nose of Saint like Bag-pipe drone,
    And speaks through hollow empty Soul,
    As through a Trunk, or whisp’ring hole,
    Such language as no mortal Ear
    But spiritual Eve-droppers can hear.”
    —Samuel Butler (1612–1680)

    “If we did not have rational souls, we would not be able to believe.”
    —St. Augustine (354–430)
