محبة المسيح غرّبتنا عن الـبشر والبشريات
القديس برصنوفيوس

The love of Christ has estranged us from others.

إذا كنت واقفاً في القداس فراقب أفكارك لكي توقف جسدك وحواسك بخوف اللـه لتستحق أن تتناول من القربان الذي هو جســـد المسيــح ودمـــــه الأقدسيـــــــن فيشفيـــك الـــــــرب.
الأنبا أشعياء

If you are in the divine liturgy, watch your thoughts to suppress your body and senses with the fear of God that you may be worthy to partake of the holy body of Christ and His holy blood, so that God may heal you.

-St. Isaiah

إن لم تستطـــع أن تحمــل عــن
النــاس متاعبهـــم فعلـــى الأقـل
لا تكـــن سببـــاً فـــى أتعابهــــم
قداسة البابا شنوده الثالث

If you are unable to carry people’s burden, do not be a cause for their troubles.

-H.H. Pope Shenouda III
