فكّر فى نار جهنم لتُمقِت أعمالها
القوى القديس الأنبا موسي

Ponder on the fire of hell so that you abhor its deeds.

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

Sayings of the Desert Fathers

#35

إعلم يقيناً أن كل إنسان يأكل ويشرب بلا ضابط
ويحب أباطيل العالم فإنه لا يستطيـع أن
ينال شيئاً من الصلاح بل ولن يدركـه
لكنـــــه يخــــدع نفســـــــه.
القوى القديس الأنبا موسي

Know well that every person that eats and drinks uncontrollably and loves the vanities of this world will not gain any righteousness, but rather deceives himself.

-St. Moses the Strong
