Arundinem quassatam non confringet, et linum fumigans non extinguet... In lino fumigante notandum quia et desertum lumine facit putorem. Sanctus Augustinus Hipponensi, Questiones in Evangelium secundum Matthaeum, Liber Primus, III Source: Migne PL 35 1324 |
'He will not snap the staff that is already crushed, or put out the wick that still smoulders... 1 It should be noted regarding the smouldering wick that with its light lost it spreads pollution. Saint Augustine of Hippo, Questions on the Gospel of Saint Matthew, Book 1, 3 1 Mt 12.20 |
