From St. Dionysius (Pseudo-Dionysius: The Complete Works, The Letters, Letter Eight sect. 5; Paulist Press pg. 278):
"Those who do not know must be taught, not punished. We do not hit the blind. We lead them by the hand."
"...busyness, keeping up with others, hustling hither and yon, makes it almost impossible for an individual to form a heart...”
From G. K. Chesterton (Habits of Belief, Essential Writings; Orbis Books pg. 138):
"The test of happiness is gratitude."
From St. Mark the Ascetic (The Philokalia Vol. 1; Faber and Faber pg. 113):
"Every success in anything we should refer to the Lord and with the Prophet say: 'Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to Your name give glory' (Ps. 113:9)."
