Knowledge And Lies

Χωρὶς μνήμης Θεοῦ, γνῶσις ἀληθὴς εἶναι οὐ δύναται· ἐκτος γὰρ τῆς προτέρας, ἡ δευτέρα νόθος ὑπάρχει.

Ἅγιος Μάρκος ὁ Ἐρημίτης, Περὶ Νόμου Πνευματικοῦ

Source: Migne PG 65.924b
Unless one is mindful of God, true knowledge is not possible, for without that which comes before, that which comes after is a lie.

Saint Mark The Ascetic, On The Spiritual Law.
