ستة أشياء تدنس النفس والجسد:
المشي في المدن – إهمال العينين بلا حفظ – التعرف
بالنساء – مصادقة الرؤساء – محبة الأحاديـــــــــــث
الجسدانية – الكلام الباطل.
القوى القديس الأنبا موسي

Six things defile the soul and the body: walking within cities, carelessly leaving the eyes unguarded, associating with women, friendship with the leaders, fleshly conversations, and profane and idle babblings.

-St. Moses the Strong

إن الله يعطيك ما ينفعك وليس ما تطلبه
إلا إذا ما تطلبه هو النــافع لــك، وذلـــك
لأنك كثيــــراً مــا تطلــب مـــا لا ينفعـك .
قداسة البابا شنوده الثالث

God will give you what is beneficial for you not from what you ask; unless, what you seek is beneficial for you, for many of what you ask is not for your benefit.

-H.H. Pope Shenouda III
