| Ὅταν μοι δείξῃς σπονδὰς κυνὸς καὶ ὑαίνης, τότε πεισθήσομαί σοι φιλάνθρωπον λέγοντι δύνασθαι εἶναι τὸν ἀπλήστως πλουτοῠντα. Ἅγιος Νειλος, Βιβλιον Πρῶτον, Ἐπιστολὴ ΣϟΗ' Ευηθιῳ Τριβουνῳ Source: Migne PG 79 192 |
When you show me there can be alliance between dogs and hyenas, then I shall be persuaded by you when you say that an insatiable lover of wealth can be a philanthropic man. Saint Nilus of Sinai, Book 1, Letter 297, To Euethius the Tribune |
