"One hears that, in foreign lands, people are now learning to swim, lying on the floor, with the aid of equipment. In the same way, one can become a Catholic or Protestant without experiencing life at all--by reading books in one's study. But to become Orthodox, it is necessary to immerse oneself all at once in the very element of Orthodoxy, to begin living in an Orthodox way. There is no other way."--Fr. Pavel Florensky

Indeed, memory eternal.
I was always amazed at how a man persecuted in part for his Faith never got recognized for it while he was here by our own media (granted, I was young...perhaps I didn't hear of it on that basis), yet his Faith was so central to his very being. May his life be a testament to us all in these days!
May his memory be eternal.+
