G.K. Chesterton
“There's a lot of difference between listening and hearing.”
― G.K. Chesterton

G.K. Chesterton
“Psychoanalysis is confession without absolution.”
― G.K. Chesterton

John Chrysostom
“Let the mouth also fast from disgraceful speeches and railings. For what does it profit if we abstain from fish and fowl and yet bite and devour our brothers and sisters? The evil speaker eats the flesh of his brother and bites the body of his neighbor. ”
― Saint John Chrysostom

John Chrysostom
“We follow the ways of wolves, the habits of tigers: or, rather we are worse than they. To them nature has assigned that they should be thus fed, while God has honoured us with rational speech and a sense of equity. And yet we are become worse than the wild beast.”
― John Chrysostom

“Learning the value of silence is learning to listen to, instead of screaming at, reality”
― Monks of New Skete
