Quote by Augustine of Hippo

“Beautiful is God, the Word with God. He is beautiful in Heaven, beautiful on earth; beautiful in the womb; beautiful in His parents’ arms, beautiful in His miracles, beautiful in His sufferings; beautiful in inviting life, beautiful in not worrying about death, beautiful in giving His life, beautiful in taking it up again; He is beautiful on the cross, beautiful in the tomb, beautiful in Heaven. Listen to the song with understanding, and let not the weakness of the flesh distract your eyes from the splendour of His beauty.”
