"All the efforts of the human mind..." - Quote by Thomas Aquinas

“An act of love always tends towards two things; to the good that one wills, and to the person for whom one wills it.”

“Love works in a circle, for the beloved moves the lover by stamping a likeness, and the lover then goes out to hold the beloved inreality. Who first was the beginning now becomes the end of motion.”

“Justice is in subjects as well as in rulers.”

“For what one has in black and white, One can carry home in comfort.”

“Our ambition should be to rule ourselves, the true kingdom for each one of us; and true progress is to know more, and be more, and to do more.”

“The man who is truly wise knows that he knows very little.”

“With regard to philosophical metaphysics, I always see increasing numbers who have attained to the negative goal, but as yet few who climb a few rungs backwards; one ought to look out, perhaps, over the last steps of the ladder, but not try to stand upon them.”

“Any conclusion you reach about yourself has to be an unseen limitation because there's always more to see.”

“Man, he is constantly growing and when he is bound by a set pattern of ideas or way of doing things, that's when he stops growing”
