“Where did I find you, that I came to know you? You were not within
my memory before I learned of you. Where, then, did I find you before I
came to know you, if not within yourself, far ab
ove
me? We come to you and go from you, but no place is involved in this
process. In every place, O Truth, you are present to those who seek your
help, and at one and the same time you answer all, though they seek
your counsel on different matters…
Late have I loved you, O beauty
ever ancient, ever new, late have I loved you… You touched me, and I
burned for your peace.” [From the Confessions of Saint Augustine,
bishop]
May God Be Praised!
