Selections from the Writings of Clement of Alexandria by Saint Clement of Alexandria; Rufus Jones – Audiobook
On the whole, I do not know where we shall look for a purer and truer man than this Clemens of Alexandria. I should like to be able to tell you something of his countenance and of his manner, as well as to give you more particulars of his history. But the facts are few and unimportant which his modesty has made known to us, or which his successors have preserved. We must be content to make his acquaintance through the words which he has spoken. Judging from them, he seems to me that one of the old Fathers whom we should all have reverenced most as a teacher, and loved best as a friend. - Summary by f.d. Maurice
