Wisdom from St. John Henry Newman

 
 
 

If I am asked why I believe in a God, I answer that it is because I believe in myself, for I feel it impossible to believe in my own existence (and of that fact I am quite sure) without believing also in the existence of Him, who lives as a Personal, All-seeing, All-judging Being in my conscience.

—St. John Henry Newman

quoted in the book, John Henry Newman: A Life Sacrificed

SACRIFICE + CHARITY

This unparalleled introduction to St. John Henry Newman—mind, heart, soul, and personality—brings the great cardinal to life before our eyes, and with him the charged air of nineteenth-century England. Drawing from his letters, writings, and journal entries with precision and poetic flair, this book is one of Ida Friederike Görres’ masterworks.
