Good Things

Augustine, Sermons 339.6 (Patrologia Latina, vol. 46, col. 967; tr. Edmund Hill):
Just consider this point, my brothers and sisters; notice how many good things the Lord our God gives to the bad: light, life, health, springs, the fruits of the earth, offspring; frequently also honors, high positions, places of authority. These are all good things which he gives to both good and bad alike.

Hoc considerate, fratres mei, videte Dominus Deus noster quanta bona det malis: lucem, vitam, salutem, fontes, fructus, generationes, plerumque honores, celsitudines, potestates; haec omnia dat bona et bonis et malis.
