Andrew Dickson White Quotes
Living In Filth Was Regarded By Great Numbers Of Holy Men, Who Set An Example To The Church And To Society, As An Evidence Of Sanctity. St. Jerome And The Breviary Of The Roman Church Dwell With Unction On The Fact That St. Hilarion Lived His Whole Life Long In Utter Physical Uncleanliness; St. Athanasius Glorifies St. Anthony Because He Had Never Washed His Feet; St. Abraham's Most Striking Evidence Of Holiness Was That For Fifty Years He Washed Neither His Hands Nor His Feet; St. Sylvia Never Washed Any Part Of Her Body Save Her Fingers; St. Euphraxia Belonged To A Convent In Which The Nuns Religiously Abstained From Bathing. St. Mary Of Egypt Was Emninent For Filthiness; St. Simon Stylites Was In This Respect Unspeakable - The Least That Can Be Said Is, That He Lived In Ordure And Stench Intolerable To His Visitors.
