Patristic Quote of the Day

If you are an ardent reader, seek not brilliant and erudite texts, otherwise the demon of haughtiness will strike your heart. But like a wise bee that gathers honey from flowers, through your reading obtain also healing for your soul. - St. Ephraim, the Syrian *A Spiritual Psalter* 57
