Nor would I scruple, with a due regard,
To read sometimes a rude unpolished bard,
Among whose labours I may find a line,
Which from unsightly rust I may refine,
And, with a better grace, adopt it into mine. (Marco Girolamo Vida)

Nor would I scruple, with a due regard, To read sometimes a rude unpolished bard, Among whose labours I may find a line, Which from unsightly rust I may refine, And, with a better grace, adopt it into mine.

Remember that God, during your prayers, is watching for your affirmative answer to the question which He is inwardly asking you: 'Do you believe I am able to do this?' To which question you must from the depth of your heart reply, 'Yes, Lord'

John of Kronstadt

Guard your mind from self-praise and flee a high opinion of yourself, so that God does not allow you to fall into the opposite passion to the virtue for which you boast, for man does not accomplish virtue alone, but with the help of God who sees all.

Marcus Eremita

Read the lives of the saints. You will find everything in them, they will teach you everything. Compare yourself not with your neighbors, but with the saints - such a comparison reveals to us how sinful we are.

Seraphim of Sofia

Sometimes I think your life and mine are under the protection of some supreme being or fate, because, after many years of parallel thought, we find ourselves in the positions we now occupy.

George S. Patton

I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it,-but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor.

Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
