Blow Quote by Gennadius of Constantinople

“Do not seek earthly glory in any matter, for it is extinguished for him who loves it. In its time it blows on a man like a strong wind, and then quickly, taking from him the fruits of his good works, it goes away from him, laughing at his foolishness.” quote by Gennadius of Constantinople — Download Open image
