“I remember in the Army there were all kinds of urgent needs… There they were asking the commander to send into the front lines! They found joy in the idea of getting killed so that others with children were not have to die and leave their children without a father! I can’t imagine anyone making this kind of sacrifice today! It would be a rare thing… These days there is a lukewarm spirit; there is no manliness, no sacrifice.”

(Elder Paisios ~ “With Pain and Love’)
