"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
"Prayer demands that the mind should be pure of all thought and should admit nothing not belonging to prayer, even if it were good in itself. As if inspired by God the mind should withdraw from all things and hold its converse with Him alone." --St. Nilus of Sinai
"If 'Christ died on our account in accordance with the Scriptures' (Romans 5:8; 1 Corinthians 15:3), and we do not 'live for ourselves', but 'for Him who died and rose' on our account (2 Corinthians 5:15), it is clear that we are debtors to Christ to serve Him till our death. How then can we regard sonship as something which is our due?" --St. Mark the Ascetic
"Only one who guards himself from all sin can have sincere and fervent faith. Faith is only preserved in the presence of good morals." --St. Nikon of Optina

"No earthly pleasures, no kingdoms of this world can benefit me in any way. I prefer death in Christ Jesus to power over the farthest limits of the earth. He who died in place of us is the one object of my quest. He who rose for our sakes is my one desire." --St. Ignatius of Antioch
"When you pray to God in time of temptation do not say, 'Take this or that away from me', but pray like this: 'O Jesus Christ, sovereign Master, help me and do not let me sin against You...'" --Abba Isaiah
"Do not think that you have a right to complain when your prayers are not answered. God fulfills your desires in a manner that you do not know." --St. Nektarios the Wonderworker
"If we knew at what time we were to depart from this world, we would be able to select a season for pleasure and another for repentance. But God, who has promised pardon to every repentant sinner, has not promised us tomorrow. Therefore we must always dread the final day, which we can never foresee. This very day is a day of truce, a day for conversion. And yet we refuse to cry over the evil we have done! Not only do we not weep for the sins we have committed, we even add to them... If we are, in fact, now occupied in good deeds, we should not attribute the strength with which we are doing them to ourselves. We must not count on ourselves, because even if we know what kind of person we are today, we do not know what we will be tomorrow. Nobody must rejoice in the security of their own good deeds. As long as we are still experiencing the uncertainties of this life, we do not know what end may follow...we must not trust in our own virtues." --St. Gregory the Great
