St Makarios of Optina
Pride more than anything else
Deprives us of our good deeds and Divine Assistance!
Where there is no Light there is Darkness!
Where there is no Humility, pride takes its place!

St Seraphim of Sarov
The Lord our God is a Fire
Who warms and kindles our heart and inward parts.
Hence, if we feel the icy coldness
that comes from the evil one for he is indeed cold
let us call upon our Lord
Who will come to warm our heart with His Perfect Love
not only for Him but also for our neighbour.
And the coldness of him who hates Goodness
will flee before the Heat of His Divine Countenance!
