Clement
(Alexandria, 150 - 215 AD), Who Is
the Rich Man
That
Shall Be Saved?, Chapter 21
"Therefore, on hearing
those words, the blessed Peter, the
chosen, the
pre-eminent, the first of the disciples, for whom
alone and Himself the Savior
paid tribute, quickly seized and
comprehended the saying. And
what does he say? 'Lo, we
have left all and followed
Thee'."
