  • Repentance is the way and the key to the Kingdom of Heaven, without which no one can enter into it. Let us keep to this path, O brethren: for the path now in this short life is narrow and afflicted, but later in that endless future life there shall …
  • "In your heart be like an emperor, seated high in humility, commanding laughter: 'Go!' and it goes; and sweet weeping: 'Come!' and it comes; and our tyrant and slave, the body: 'Do this!' and it does it." + St. John Climacus. +
