Quotes

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

Love of God proceeds from conversing with him; this conversation of prayer comes about through stillness, and stillness comes with the stripping away of the self.

A holy man told us one day, that the source of all heresies and schisms in the church was, loving God too little, and ourselves too much.

Only with the greatest struggle and sacrifice is the chaff of heresy separated from the wheat of Orthodox truth.

The person who is unaffected by the things of this world loves stillness; and he who loves no human thing loves all men.

Stillness mortifies the outward senses and resurrects the inward movements, whereas agitation does the opposite, that is, it resurrects the outward senses and deadens the inward movements.

Guard yourselves from soul-destroying heresy, communion with which is alienation from Christ.

Beware of reading the doctrines of heretics for they, more than anything else, can equip the spirit of blasphemy against you.

Blessed stillness gives birth to blessed children: self-control, love and pure prayer.
