“It has become ‘bon ton’ in certain Orthodox circles to say that a person has “over-prayed”:  he reads a prayer rule, canons, kathismas, and is just too pious. This is pronounced like a diagnosis. But we are taking the role of judge upon ourselves, for the most part not out of an abundance of spiritual discernment, but rather out of our own weak faith, slothfulness, and self-love.”

(Metropolitan Tikhon Shevkunov in  “Cynicism is an Illness”)
