"Love unites us to God. Love covers a multitude of sins. Love bears all things, is long-suffering in all things. There is nothing base, nothing arrogant in love. Love admits of no schisms: love gives rise to no seditions: love does all things in harmony. By love have all the elect of God been made perfect; without love nothing is well-pleasing to God." --St. Clement of Rome
"Let your prayer be completely simple. For both the publican and the prodigal son were reconciled to God by a single phrase." --St. John Climacus
"The man who cries out against evil men, but does not pray for them will never know the grace of God." --St. Silouan of Mt. Athos
"Where there is no prayer and fasting, there are the demons." --St. Theophan the Recluse
"You should know that there is present with you the angel whom God has appointed for each man… This angel, who is sleepless and cannot be deceived, is always present with you; he sees all things and is not hindered by darkness. You should know, too, that with him is God." --St. Anthony the Great
