St Augustine on humility

Humility is the theme of our readings this weekend on the 22nd Sunday of Ordinary Time.  There is so many great quotes on humility that I wove throughout my homily.  We also have this quote from St Augustine, who feast day we celebrate on Sunday, August 28. 


"Humility is so necessary for Christian perfection that among all the ways to reach perfection, humility is first, humility is second, and humility is third....Humility makes men angels, and pride makes angels devils."
