Saint Augustine Ask Me Quotations

What then is time? If no one asks me, I know what it is. If I wish to explain it to him who asks, I do not know.

For what is time? ... Who can even in thought comprehend it, so as to utter a word about it? ... If no one asks me, I know: If I wish to explain it to one that asketh, I know not ....

What is grace? I know until you ask me; when you ask me, I do not know.
