"A man questioned abbot Nistero: “What good work shall I do?” And he answered, “All works are not equal. The Scripture saith that Abraham was hospitable, and God was with him. And Elias loved quiet, and God was with him. And David was humble, and God was with him. What therefore thou findest that thy soul desireth in following God, that do, and keep thy heart.”
-- Verba Seniorum (The Sayings of the Desert Fathers)
