A man's life consists not in the abundance of the things which he possesses." (Luke 12:15) My God(!) to what have we come? In what are we better than heathens in our mode of life? Where is our faith, our trust in God, our love for our neighbor? O, pride of Satan! O, what shame is ours!
St. John of Kronstadt
