God has no need for our worship. It is we who need to show our gratitude for what we have received.

He who is drawn to something desirable does not desire to have it as a thought but as a thing.

If, then, you are looking for the way by which you should go, take Christ, because He Himself is the way.

The Study of philosophy is not that we may know what men have thought, but what the truth of things is.

Distinctions drawn by the mind are not necessarily equivalent to distinctions in reality.

To live well is to work well, to show a good activity.

Commemoration of Gilbert of Sempringham, Founder of the Gilbertine Order, 1189 Some there are who presume so far on their wits that they think themselves capable of measuring the whole nature of things by their intellect, in that they esteem all things true which they see, and false which they see not. Accordingly, in order that man's mind might be freed from this presumption, and seek the truth humbly, it was necessary that certain things far surpassing his intellect should be proposed to man by God.
