Additional quotes by Jerome

Heliodorus, tells me that there are many parts of the Scriptures which you seek and cannot find. But even if you have them all, affection is sure to assert its rights and to seek for itself more than it already has.

The fruit which is an hundredfold and that which is sixtyfold both spring from one seed,

Begin now to be what you will be hereafter.
