إلتمس فهماً لا ذهبــــاً وإقتن سلامة لا مُلكــاً
مارإسحق السرياني

Acquire understanding not gold, acquire peace not kingship.

القوى القديس الأنبا موسي

Let us love the purity of heart and the purity of the body so that we will be saved from any uncleanness.

إن أردت أن ُتـريــح النــاس فإفعــل
ذلك بالطريقة التي يرونهــا مريحـة
لهم، ليس حسب فكرك لأنــك ربمـا قداسة البابا شنوده الثالث
تحاول أن تريحهـم بأسـلوب يُتعبهم.

If you desire to comfort people, do so in a way that is comforting for them, not according to your will, for you may attempt in a way that discomforts them.

-H.H. Pope Shenouda III
