The wisdom of what a person says is in direct proportion to his progress in learning the Holy Scriptures – and I am not speaking of intensive reading or memorization, but real understanding and careful investigation of their meaning. Some people read them but neglect them; by their reading they profit in knowledge, by their neglect they forfeit understanding.
St. Augustine of Hippo
