Poverty And Enrichment

Ὁ ἀβουλήτως κοπιῶν, καθολικῶς πτωχεύει. Ὁ δὲ μετ' ἐλπίδος τρέχων, δίπλουτός ἐστιν.

Ἅγιος Μάρκος ὁ Ἐρημίτης, Περὶ Νόμου Πνευματικοῦ

Source: Migne PG 65.913c
He who toils unwillingly utterly impoverishes himself, but he who runs with hope is enriched twofold.

Saint Mark The Ascetic, On The Spiritual Law.
