Quote of the Day: Ignatius

"Neither the ends of the earth nor the kingdoms of this age are of any use to me. It is better for me to die for Jesus Christ than to rule over the ends of the earth. Him I seek, who died on our behalf; him I long for, who rose again for our sake. The pains of birth are upon me."

—Ignatius, Epistle to the Romans, 6.1 (c. 110–117)
