"Two loves have made two different cities: self-love……" — Saint Augustine

"Two loves have made two different cities: self-love hath made a terrestrial city, which rises in contempt of God; and Divine Love hath made a celestial one, which rises in contempt of self. The former glories in itself - the latter in God."

Saint Augustine
