A person who lives as if he were to die everyday—given that our life is uncertain by definition—will not sin, for good fear extinguishes most of the disorder of our appetites; whereas he who thinks he has a long life ahead of him will easily let himself be dominated by pleasure.

 –St. Athanasius

Read God's Book continually; never let the sacred volume be out of your hand. Learn, so that you may teach.
