Fear is such a powerful emotion for humans that when we allow it to take us over, it drives compassion right out of our hearts.
Thomas AquinasHe that obstinately denieth the truth before men upon earth, wilfully refuseth his soul's health in heaven.
Thomas AquinasSince faith rests upon infallible truth, and since the contrary of a truth can never be demonstrated, it is clear that the arguments brought against faith cannot be demonstrations, but are difficulties that can be answered.
Thomas AquinasIt seems that God does not exist; because if one of two contraries be infinite, the other would be altogether destroyed. But the word "God" means that He is infinite goodness. If, therefore, God existed, there would be no evil discoverable; but there is evil in the world. Therefore God does not exist.
Thomas Aquinas
