His love of God and his love of neighbor are two distinct virtues that have no common quality but only a common source. Love of God is adoration of the only true good; it is gratitude to the bestower of all gifts; it is joy in holiness; it is "consent to Being." But the love of man is pitiful rather than adoring; it is giving and forgiving rather than grateful. It suffers for them in their viciousness and profaneness; it does not consent to accept them as they are, but calls them to repentance. The love of God is nonpossessive Eros; the love of man pure Agape; the love of God is passion; the love of man, compassion. There is duality here, but not of like-minded interest in two great values, God and man. It is rather the duality of the Son of Man and Son of God, who loves God as man should love Him, and loves man as only God can love, with powerful pity for those who are foundering.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Chaos is a friend of mine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5603]]></link><description><![CDATA[Chaos is a friend of mine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5603</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They are making investments now so they need our advice as to how to go about doing it.

These are talents in their kind; but it is the Spirit that must manage all that learning they have, or it will prejudice them, and you also. I have known some good men who have been so addicted to their study, that they have thought the last day of the week sufficient to prepare for their ministry, though they employ all the rest of the week in other studies. But you business is to trade with your spiritual abilities... A man may preach a very good sermon, who is otherwise himself; but he will never make a good minister of Jesus Christ, whose mind and heart [are] not always in the work. Spiritual gifts will require continual ruminating on the things of the Gospel in our minds.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have noticed that what cats most appreciate in a human being is not the ability to produce food, which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26317]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have noticed that what cats most appreciate in a human being is not the ability to produce food, which they take for granted - but his or her entertainment value]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Modesty is the color of virtue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27624]]></link><description><![CDATA[Modesty is the color of virtue.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I came into the Agency with a set of ideas and attitudes that were quite typical of people coming into ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28757]]></link><description><![CDATA[I came into the Agency with a set of ideas and attitudes that were quite typical of people coming into the Agency at that time.
