The blessed in the kingdom of heaven will see the punishments of the damned, in order that their bliss be more delightful for them.
Thomas AquinasNothing created has ever been able to fill the heart of man. God alone can fill it infinitely.
Thomas AquinasHold firmly that our faith is identical with that of the ancients. Deny this, and you dissolve the unity of the Church.
Thomas AquinasIt must be understood that prime matter, and form as well, is neither generated nor corrupted, because every generation is from something to something. Now that from which generation proceeds is matter, and that to which it proceeds is form. So that, if matter or form were generated, there would be a matter for matter and a form for form, endlessly. Whence, there is generation only of the composite, properly speaking.
Thomas Aquinas
