Freedom of the Heart- Fall in love

“The intellect does many good and bad things without the body, whereas the body can do neither good nor evil without the intellect. This is because the law of freedom applies to what happens before we act.” ~

Saint Kosmas Aitolos

“Take care to bridle the flesh, that it might not plunge its rider — the mind — into danger.” ~

Venerable Ephraim the Syrian
