"If someone wants to be protected from tricks and remain healthy in the faith, he must confine his faith first to the authority of the Holy Scriptures, and secondly to the Tradition of the Church.
But someone may ask, is not the canon of Scripture sufficient for everything, and why should we add thereto the authority of Tradition? This is because not everyone understands the Scriptures in the same way, but one explains them this way and another that way, so that it is possible to get therefrom as many thoughts as there are heads. Therefore it is necessary to be guided by the understanding of the Church ...
What is tradition? It is that which has been understood by everyone, everywhere and at all times ... that which you have received, and not that which you have thought up ... So then, our job is not to lead religion where we wish it to go, but to follow it where it leads, and not to give that which is our own to our heirs, but to guard that which has been given to us."
St. Vincent of Lerina

"You fast but satan doesn't eat, you stay awake at night, but satan doesn't sleep, you read the scriptures, but satan has them memorized, you conquer the passions of the body, but satan doesn't have a body, you do good deeds, but so does satan when he wants to deceive someone , only through love and obedience can you be better than satan because he does not know how to love and cannot be obedient"

"Repentance opens to heavens, takes us to Paradise, overcomes the devil. Have you sinned? Do not despair! If you sin every day, then offer repentance every day! When there are rotten parts in old houses, We replaced the parts with new ones, and we do not stop caring for the houses. In the same way, you should reason for yourself: If today you have defiled yourself with som, immediately cleanse yourself with repentance." - Saint John Chrysostom

"Be watchful as you travel each day the narrow but joyous and exhilarating road of the mind, keeping your attention humbly in your heart, reproaching yourself, ready to rebut your enemies, thinking of your death and invoking Jesus Christ. He will then attain a vision of the Holy of Holies and be illumined by Christ with deep mysteries." - Saint Hesychios the Priest
