"Whoever does not sustain the gifts of Baptism, by living a life according to the commandments, loses everything he acquired." - St Ignatius (Brianchaninov)
"Whosoever immerses himself often in contemplation of the Biblical accounts will inevitably sense within his soul an extraordinary, strange impression." - St Ignatius (Brianchaninov)
"I am your brother, whom you sold. Do not sorrow that you sold me . . . Let this not worry you or torture you! God, Who provides for your salvation, led me here."
