Quotes

A collection of scriptural meditations from Saints and Fathers of the Church.

Compassion and humility are like the soul’s wings by which it flies up to heaven (Ps. 104:7). Without them prayer cannot rise off the ground...

Nothing causes a man to sin so often as his tongue.

Control the tongue, so that it will not utter empty words. Whoever preserves his tongue, preserves his soul from grief.

Strive to walk worthily of the vocation to which you were called.

God smiles on the compassionate heart. Every time a beggar knocks at your door, try to perceive Christ Himself under the humble disguise. Would you, under any circumstances, let Christ knock in vain? The moral qualities of the individual beggar have nothing to do with it; that is Christ's concern, not yours. Who are you to judge your brother? Christ is using the beggar’s hand and mouth to test your compassion of Himself. Will you fail Him?

True escape from the world is for a person to know how to control his tongue, wherever he might be.
