Where there is no Orthodox monasticism, there is no Church. In the same way, a country without an army and a rule of law without police are unthinkable. Monks guard church borders and protect the Church from its enemies, who, in our era of materialism, rush like wolves in order to tear it to pieces. - St. Amphilochius (Makris)
