St. Maximos the Confessor: To love God is to love every man


 The person who loves God cannot help loving every man as himself, even though he is grieved by the passions of those who are not yet purified. But when they amend their lives, his delight is indescribable and knows no bounds.
+St. Maximos the Confessor, from Four Centuries on Charity, Century 1, #13
