Reading And Doing

Τῆς Γραφῆς τὰ ῥήματα διὰ πράξεων ἀναγίνωσκε· καὶ μὴ πλατυλόγει ἐπὶ ψιλοῖς τοῖς νοήμασι εἰκῆ φυσιούμενος. Ἅγιος Μάρκος ὁ Ἐρημίτης, Περὶ Νόμου Πνευματικοῦ Source: Migne PG 65.916c

The words of Scripture are read through deeds, lest we babble mindlessly, seeming to be constituted of empty thoughts. Saint Mark The Ascetic, On The Spiritual Law.
