Maximus the Confessor, also known as Maximus the Theologian and Maximus of Constantinople, was a Christian monk, theologian, and scholar. Venerated in: Eastern Orthodox Church; Roman Catholic Church; Anglican Communion; Lutheranism.

St. Maximus demonstrates that man does not find his unity, the integration of himself or his totality within himself but by surpassing himself, by coming out of himself. Thus, also in Christ, by coming out of himself, man finds himself in God, in the Son of God.

"The way to knowledge is detachment and humility, without which no one will see the Lord."

–St. Maximus the Confessor
