“You threaten me with fire which burns for an hour, and after a little is extinguished, but are ignorant of the fire of the coming judgment and of eternal punishment, reserved for the ungodly. But why do you tarry? Bring forth what you will.”—St. Polycarp, before his martyrdom, cited in "The Martyrdom of Polycarp" written by the Church of Smyrna circa 155 A.D.
