“In the same way that hay and fire cannot exist together, Divine and human truths cannot exist concurrently in one soul. The one, who entrusts himself to Divine truth in everything, does not become troubled when he is wronged, and does not search for justification in the matter, for which he was convicted, but accepts false accusations against himself as true ones, and does not care about changing the minds of the people that slandered him, but will even ask for forgiveness himself. “
(Elder St Paisios of Mt Athos, quote from fatheralexander Missionary Leaflet)
