Любим цитат от страницата на Fr James Thornton

"The true measure of kinship, that truly links men—men and nations—in kinship and closeness, is not so much blood as compassion. The want of one man and the compassion of another bring the two men together more than blood-brotherhood. All blood ties are transient and have significance only in temporal life, serving as an image of the enduring, eternal ties of spiritual kinship. Spiritual kin, who are born of the encounter of want with compassion, remain brethren for all eternity. For blood-brothers, born of blood, God is only Creator, but for spiritual brethren, born of compassion, God is Father." - St. Nikolai (Velimirovic)
