Catechetical instructions of St. Thomas Aquinas Quotes

“our manner of knowing is so weak that no philosopher could perfectly investigate the nature of even one little fly.”
― Thomas Aquinas, The Catechetical Instructions

“The world tempts us either by attaching us to it in prosperity, or by filling us with fear of adversity. But faith overcomes this in that we believe in a life to come better than this one, and hence we despise the riches of this world and we are not terrified in the face of adversity.”
― Thomas Aquinas, The Catechetical Instructions
