For God is good — or rather, of all goodness He is Fountainhead, and it is impossible for one who is good to be mean or grudging about anything.

Even on the cross He did not hide Himself from sight; rather, He made all creation witness to the presence of its Maker.

Christians, instead of arming themselves with swords, extend their hands in prayer.

He (Jesus) became what we are that He might make us what He is.

While [the Arians], like men sprung from a dunghill, truly "spoke from the earth" [Jn. 3:31], the bishops [of Nicea], not having invented their phrases for themselves, but having testimony from their fathers, wrote as they did. For ancient bishops, of the great Rome and our city [i.e., Alexandria, Egypt, where Athanasius was bishop], some 130 years ago, wrote and censured those who said that the Son was a creature and not consubstantial with the Father.

For the Lord touched all parts of creation, and freed and undeceived them all from every deceit.
