"The man of God (Benedict), besides so many miracles which made him famous amongst men; was also held in high repute as a teacher; for he wrote a Rule for Monks, both excellent in it discretion and eloquent in style. If anyone desires to know more of his manner of life, he can find all that the Master did in this Rule; for the holy man could not in any way teach otherwise than he lived," - Second Book of Dialogues of St. Gregory the Great c. xxxvi.
"In omnibus igitur omnes magistram sequantur regulam, nequ ab ea temere declinetur a quoquam." - S. Reg., cap. iii.
"Ecce pietate sus demonstrat nobis Dominus viam vit?." - Prologus in Regulam.
