Pride

More quotes by Henry Edward Manning

All human conflict is ultimately theological.

What is dogma but the intellectual conception and verbal expression of a divine truth?

No ignorance of truth is a personal sin before God, except that ignorance which springs from personal sin.

There are only two centres, God and ourselves; and we must rest on one or on the other.

Our character is our will; for what we will we are.
