Quote by Porphyrios (Bairaktaris) of Kafsokalivia

“It is a great art to succeed in having your soul sanctified. A person can become a saint anywhere. He can become a saint in Omonia Square, if he wants. At your work, whatever it may be, you can become a saint through meekness, patience, and love. Make a new start every day, with new resolution, with enthusiasm and love, prayer and silence - not with anxiety so that you get a pain in the chest.”

“Why does soldiers leave the protection of his trench hole in the ground and go forward in the face of shot and shell?
