THOMAS AQUINAS (b. 1225 or 1226, d. 1274) is regarded as the greatest of scholastic philosophers. In all Catholic educational institutions that teach philosophy his system has to be taught as the only right one; this has been the rule since a rescript of 1879 by Leo XIII.
Bertrand Russell • History of Western Philosophy
The most influential medieval apologist of Western Christendom was its most influential theologian: Thomas Aquinas.
Joseph M. Holden • The Comprehensive Guide to Apologetics
In its general outlines, the philosophy of Aquinas agrees with that of Aristotle, and will be accepted or rejected by a reader in the measure in which he accepts or rejects the philosophy of the Stagyrite.
