"The kingdom of God is within you." This saying shows, I believe, that the goodness of God is not separated from our nature, or far away from those who seek it, but it is ever present in each individual, unknown, and forgotten when one is choked by the cares and pleasures of life, but discovered again when we turn our attention to it.

–St. Gregory of Nyssa
