“You will not fix the Church or the world. Whereas you will be corrected, perfected and enlightened so as to enlighten those who are willing… Misfortune will bring many people to their senses whereas the unrepentant will have no excuse. Remember, my son, that although you were formed out of clay you are the breath of God. Do not disregard your worth and do not be engrossed in material things.”
(Elder Joseph the Hesychast in ‘Monastic Wisdom’)
