Quotes

"What should one do so that the mind might be constantly occupied with God? If we do not acquire the three following virtues: love for God and men, continence, and the Prayer of Jesus, then our mind cannot be completely occupied with God. For love makes anger meek, continence weakens fleshly desire, and prayer draws the mind away from thoughts and banishes every hatred and high-mindedness."

- St. Paisius Velichkovsky, Little Russian Philokalia

Meekness

Repentance and humility establish the soul. Charity and meekness strengthen it.

St. Evagrius the Solitary

"At your work, flee conversation; only measured words in case of need. The hands should work for the needs of the body, and the mind should say the sweetest name of Christ, so that the need of the soul, which we must not forget even for moment, also will be provided for."

Elder Ephraim of Mt. Athos, Counsels from the Holy Mountain
