St. Thomas Aquinas
 

 

St. Catherine of Siena (1347- 1380), Dominican & Doctor of the Church – Biography & Dialogue

 

You, O eternal Trinity, are a deep sea, into which the more I enter the more I find, and the more I find the more I seek. The soul cannot be satiated in your abyss, for she continually hungers after you, desiring to see you with the light of your light.  As the heart desires the springs of living water, so my soul desires to leave the prison of this dark body and see you in truth.

                         - St. Catherine of Siena
