Households, cities, countries and nations have enjoyed great happiness, when a single individual has taken heed of the Good and Beautiful. Such men not only liberate themselves; they fill those they meet with a free mind.

What God is to the world, that parents are to their children.

Learning is by nature curiosity... prying into everything, reluctant to leave anything, material or immaterial, unexplained.

Those who give hoping to be rewarded with honor are not giving, they are bargaining.

Remorse for what is done is useless.

I know that God exists. I know that I have never invented anything. I have been a medium by which these things were given to the culture as fast as the culture could earn them. I give all the credit to God.

Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle. by Saint Philo of Alexandria
