It is said that the the­o­lo­gian Thom­as Aquin­as once called on Pope In­no­cent II when the lat­ter was count­ing out a large sum of mo­ney. The Pope re­marked, ‘You see, Thom­as, the church can no long­er say, ‘Silver and gold have I none.’” Aquin­as re­plied, “True, ho­ly fa­ther, but nei­ther can she now say, ‘Rise and walk.”’
