Title: Quote for the Night: Holy Virtue Post by: Shin on January 13, 2011, 08:04:50 PM 'So then, my brothers, let us give off a sweet spiritual fragrance, a perfume that each one produces for themselves by a blending of the virtues, as a truly master perfumer. This perfume is blessed. This perfume is sweet to God. This perfume attracts angels, but repels demons. With this perfume women ran behind Jesus, as it says in the Song of Songs [1,4 LXX].'
