"For can anyone be excused who, by ceasing to pray, has shown that he did not wish to overcome his enemy." --St. John Chrysostom
"We must keep in mind that whatever we do, openly or in secret, we do in the presence of our guardian angel." --St. Nikolai of Zicha
"Speak well of those who speak evil of you. Pay good for evil. Pray for those who cause you various offenses, wrongs, temptations, persecutions. Whatever you do, on no account condemn anyone; do not even try to judge whether a person is good or bad, but keep your eyes on that one evil person for whom you must give an account before God–yourself." --St. Ignatius Brianchaninov
"All who truly believe in Christ and cleave to Him with all their soul, are changed into His image by the power of His Resurrection." --St. Theophan the Recluse
