Sin for him is not a moral failure; it is not even disobedience. Disobedience is a consequence but not the cause. The cause is: turning away from God, and from God as the highest good, as the love with which God loves Himself, through us. For this reason, since sin has this character -- if you say "sins", it is easily dissolved into moral sins; but sin is first of all basically the power of turning away from God. For this very reason, no moral remedy is possible. Only one remedy is possible: return to God. But this of course is possible only in the power of God, and this power is lost. This is the state of man under the conditions of existence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7651</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing what's right. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43138]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing what's right.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43138</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man cannot be a Christian in the place where he is, he cannot be a Christian anywhere. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8007]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man cannot be a Christian in the place where he is, he cannot be a Christian anywhere.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8007</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you've walked up the Rue la Paix at Paris, Been to the Louvre and the Tuileries,  And to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45538]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you've walked up the Rue la Paix at Paris, Been to the Louvre and the Tuileries,  And to Versailles, although to go so far is   A thing not quite consistent with your ease,    And--but the mass of objects quite a bar is     To my describing what the traveller sees.      You who have ever been to Paris, know;       And you who have not been to Paris--go!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45538</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man has a good enough memory to make a successful liar. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65605]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man has a good enough memory to make a successful liar.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sum total of all sums total is eternal (meaning the universe). [Lat., Summarum summa est aeternum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14201]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sum total of all sums total is eternal (meaning the universe). [Lat., Summarum summa est aeternum.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14201</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[First the doctor told me the good news: I was going to have a disease named after me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12473]]></link><description><![CDATA[First the doctor told me the good news: I was going to have a disease named after me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12473</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dreams pass into the reality of action.
