“The blessing of the Lord be upon this SERBIAN HOLY MOUNTAIN OF ATHOS and its all monasteries, martyr shelters, thermal waters, historical monuments and tombs! Over the centuries, it has been to the Serbian people the source of strength and health, the source of moral and spiritual strengthening, the source of Christian and national conscience, the source of piety and the source of practical brotherly unision – and, above all, an inexhaustible source of all the noble inspirations for good deeds.”
Saint Nikolaj Velimirović
