• Puesto que Dios es el fin del hombre, puesto que nos ha creado para ser perfectos y felices en Él, es manifiesto que si los designios de la creación no se han frustrado aquí abajo del todo, se han de encontrar hombres que tiendan a su fin buscando y amando a Dios. Y, sin embargo, a causa de la libertad humana, debe haber también otros hombres que descuiden a Dios, su principio y su fin, y cedan a la seducción de las cosas creadas. Tal es, en efecto, el espectáculo que nos presenta sin cesar la historia del mundo.
