Patristic Quote of the Day

Feelings cannot exist in anything but a living soul. These events show that just as Jesus had a human body he had a human soul. We read about the diversity of his feelings in the reports of the Evangelists: Jesus was astonished, was angered, was grieved, was elated, and similar emotive responses without number.—St. Augustine, Against the Apollinarians, 80.
