Patristic Quote of the Day

God seems to me to be continency, because He desires nothing, but has all things in Himself.—St. Basil the Great, Letter 366

Hi, I was wondering from where you have gotten your St. Basil quotes? The specific source. Thanks!

Hi, Jonathan. Those quotes were from the Schaf translation that is available here: newadvent.org under fathers. It's also available a couple other places on line. If you see quotes from On the Holy Spirit that is from the translation published by SVS Press.
