Peter Abelard
The purpose and cause of the incarnation was that He might illuminate the world by His wisdom and excite it to the love of Himself.
Abelard quotes
Bonam quippe intentionem, hoc est, rectam in se dicimus, operationem vero non quod boni aliquid in se suscipiat, sed quod ex bona intentione procedat. Unde et ab eodem homine cum in diversis temporibus idem fiat, pro diversitate tamen intentione eius operatio modo bono modo mala dicitur.
Abelard
O quanta qualia
sunt illa sabbata,
quae semper celebrat
superna curia.




Abelard Peter quotes
Prima sapientiae clavis definitur, assidua scilicet seu frequens interrogatio … Dubitando enim ad inquisitionem venimus; inquirendo veritatem percipimus.
