Lessons by our Holy Fathers
Having come to love the labor of prayer, come to love silence: it will preserve the powers of your soul undivided and capable of constant prayer in your inner closet. The habit of silence gives one the possibility of prayer of the heart in stillness, even amidst a noisy throng.
St Ignatius Brianchaninov
