Quotes by Augustine of Hippo, Confessions

"I held my heart back from positively accepting anything, since I was afraid of another fall, and in this condition of suspense I was being all the more killed."
"I probably felt more resentment for what I personally was to suffer than for the wrong they were doing to anyone and everyone. But at that time I was determined not to put up with badly behaved people more out of my own interest than because I wanted them to become good people."
"Thou hast made us for thyself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it finds its rest in thee."
