“We are philosophers – not in words – but in deeds. We do not speak great things; we live them.” – Cyprian

Lactantius:

“A son . . . who deserts his father in order not to pay him obedience is considered deserving of being disinherited and of having his name removed forever from his family.  How much more so does a person [deserve to be disinherited] who forsakes God? . . . Of what punishments, therefore, is he deserving who forsakes Him who is both the true Master and Father?”
