“The fruits of Orthodoxy are the hosts of saints in Heaven. They are the main Triumph of Orthodoxy. The saints whom we venerate in Orthodoxy, with whom we live, to whom we constantly turn in prayer, whose memories we celebrate as our feasts, whose names we bear are our Heavenly patrons, our quick helpers and intercessors for our souls.”
(Priest Nicholai Bulgakov in pravoslavie.ru)
