Quote by St. Mark The Ascetic on correcting others



If someone does not obey you when you have told him once, do not argue and try to compel him; but take for yourself the profit which he has thrown away. For forbearance will benefit you more than correcting him.

St. Mark The Ascetic
Philokalia

  1. In the same spirit:
    Matthew 5:4
    41 If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles.
