Quote by Saint Augustine
What I needed most was to love and to be loved, eager to be caught

What I needed most was to love and to be loved, eager to be caught. Happily I wrapped those painful bonds around me and sure enough, I would be lashed with the red-hot pokers or jealousy, by suspicions and fear, by burst of anger and quarrels. – Saint Augustine

Other quotes by Saint Augustine
