By Abba ArseniusSource: Abba Arsenius - Sayings of the Desert Fathers (Apophthegmata Patrum) - Public Domain63 words
Arsenius, flee, be silent, pray always, for these are the sources of sinlessness. Lord, lead me in the way of salvation.

Having withdrawn to the solitary life, the same voice came: Arsenius, flee, be silent, be at rest; these are the roots of a life without sin.
