“If the man doesn't cope with his own sins, devil will make him cope with other's.”
Paisios of Mount Athos

“The higher level man reaches in spiritual life, the lesser are his rights; Spiritually mature man doesn't have any rights.”
Paisios of Mount Athos

“Што је неко духовно савршенији, то мање права има у овоме животу.
Духовно зрео човек нема никаква права у овоме животу. Он је дужан да буде трпељив, да прихвата неправду и прекоре од другога.
Неки својеглав и неосетљив човек, као чворновата батина, удаљен од Бога, има многа права. И да удара и да псује и да чини неправду. А наша права чува Бог за други живот. Али ми често из безумља, па и ја сам, тражимо да добијемо правду овде, како овде не бисмо били оштећени.
Ако нам нешто кажу, оправдавамо се, чинимо, шта ја знам шта, и мислимо да верујемо у Бога. То је велика заблуда. Људска правда не говори ништа о духовном човеку. Људска правда је, могло би се рећи, кочница за наопаке људе.”
Paisios of Mount Athos
