(“St. Augustine in His Study” by Vittore Carpaccio, 1502)

“So anyone who thinks that he has understood the divine scriptures or any part of them, but cannot by his understanding build up this double love of God and neighbor, has not yet succeeded in understanding them.”

Augustine of Hippo (354-430)
On Christian Teaching, 1:36
