As a handful of sand thrown into the ocean, so are the sins of all flesh
as compared with the mind of God. Just as a strongly flowing fountain
is not blocked up by a handful of earth, so the compassion of the
Creator is not overcome by the wickedness of His creatures.
St. Isaac of Syria, 7th century
