Not to practice them is to abandon our humanity. To practice them spontaneously and delightfully is not yet possible. This situation creates the category of duty, the whole specifically moral realm. It exists to be transcended. Here is the paradox of Christianity. As practical imperatives for here and now, the two great commandments have to be translated "Behave as if you loved God and man". For no man can love because he is told to. Yet obedience on this practical level is not really obedience at all. And if a man really loved God and man, once again this would hardly be obedience; for if he did, he would be unable to help it. Thus the command really says to us, "Ye must be born again". Till then, we have duty, morality, the Law. A schoolmaster, as St. Paul says, is to bring us to Christ. We must expect no more of it than of a schoolmaster; we must allow it no less.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8550</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Helping others is like helping yourself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57154]]></link><description><![CDATA[Helping others is like helping yourself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57154</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some say "to-morrow" never comes, A saying oft thought right;  But if to-morrow never came,   No end ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59439]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some say "to-morrow" never comes, A saying oft thought right;  But if to-morrow never came,   No end were of "to-night."    The fact is this, time flies so fast,     That e'er we've time to say      "To-morrow's come," presto! behold!       "To-morrow" proves "To-day."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59439</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are many things that we would throw away if we were not afraid that others might pick them up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18287]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are many things that we would throw away if we were not afraid that others might pick them up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18287</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is blind, but friendship is clairvoyant. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17215]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is blind, but friendship is clairvoyant.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man's errors are what make him amiable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14176]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man's errors are what make him amiable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14176</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cut quarrels out of literature, and you will have very little history or drama or fiction or epic poetry left. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52683]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cut quarrels out of literature, and you will have very little history or drama or fiction or epic poetry left.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52683</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When women hold off from marrying men, we call it independence.
