TUESDAY QUOTE OF THE WEEK CCCII

FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUNDThis week's selected quotes come from the last meeting of the St. Sebastian Chesterton Society's reading of Thomas Aquinas:

QUOTE I:  "We might even say that the one thing which separates a saint from ordinary men is his readiness to be one with ordinary men. . . A saint . . . is the only sort of superior man who has never been a superior person."
 
QUOTE II:  "And poetry without philosophy has only inspiration, or, in vulgar language, only wind."
 
QUOTE III:  "There are those who maintain that there are is something that is both Yes and No.  I do not know whether they pronounce it Yo."
 
QUOTE IV:  "The Protestant theology of Martin Luther was a thing that no modern Protestant would be seen dead in a field with."
 
IN OTHER NEWS:
