Quote by Augustine
“Si te agradan las almas, ámalas en Dios, porque, si bien son mudables, fijas en él, permanecerán; de otro modo desfallecerían y perecerían. Ámalas, pues, en él y arrastra contigo hacia él a cuantos puedas y diles: «A éste amemos»; él es el que ha hecho estas cosas y no está lejos de aquí. Porque no las hizo y se fue, sino que proceden de él y en él están.”

Aurelius Augustinus - more commonly "St. Augustine of Hippo," or simply "Augustine" - was a philosopher and theologian, and one of the most important figures in the development of Western Christianity. He framed the concepts of original sin and just war. Augustine was one of the most prolific Latin authors in terms of surviving works, and the list of his works consists of more than a hundred separate titles.
Augustine took the view that the Biblical text should not be interpreted literally if it contradicts what we know from science and our God-given reason. Many Protestants, especially Calvinists, consider him to be one of the theological fathers of Reformation teaching on salvation and divine grace.
