More quotes by Saint John Chrysostom
Let us not overlook so great a gain.
Saint John Chrysostom
You carry your snare everywhere and spread your nets in all places. You allege that you never invited others to sin. You did not indeed, by your words, but you have done so by your dress and your deportment.
Saint John Chrysostom
Surely we ought to show them (animals) great kindness and gentleness for many reasons, but, above all, because they are of the same origin as ourselves.
Saint John Chrysostom
If then we have Angels, let us be sober, as though we were in the presence of tutors for there is a demon present also.
Saint John Chrysostom

Saint John Chrysostom

Saint John Chrysostom
Nothing causes us to so nearly resemble God as the forgiveness of injuries.

Saint John Chrysostom
Be ashamed when you sin, not when you repent.
Saint John Chrysostom
What the soul is in the body, let Christians be in the world.
Saint John Chrysostom
Woman -a foe of friendship, an inescapable punishment, a necessary evil.
Saint John Chrysostom
God helps those who work, not those who are idle. No one helps an inactive person, but one who joins in the labor. The good God himself will bring...work to perfection.
Saint John Chrysostom
Words would be superfluous if we had deeds to show for Them.
Saint John Chrysostom
Musicke doth withdraw our mindes from earthly cogitations, lifteth up our spirits into heaven, maketh them light and celestial.

The Holy Scriptures lead us to God and open the path to the knowledge of God.
Saint John Chrysostom
