Quotes about Vigilance
Beware of rashness, but with energy and sleepless vigilance go forward and give us victories.
Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.
Since you have forsaken the world and turned wholly to God, you are symbolically dead in the eyes of men; therefore, let your heart be dead to all earthly affections and concerns, and wholly devoted to our Lord Jesus Christ. For you must be well aware that if we make an outward show of conversion to God without giving Him our hearts, it is only a shadow and pretence of virtue, and no true conversion. Any man or woman who neglects to maintain inward vigilance, and only makes an outward show of holiness in dress, speech, and behavior, is a wretched creature. For they watch the doings of other people and criticize their faults, imagining themselves to be something when in reality they are nothing. In this way they deceive themselves. Be careful to avoid this, and devote yourself inwardly to His likeness by humility, charity, and other spiritual virtues. In this way you will be truly converted to God.
Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.

The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.
Beware of rashness, but with energy, and sleepless vigilance, go forward and give us victories.
Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.
