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[Cosmetics is a boon to every woman, but a girl's best beauty aid is still a near-sighted man ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10202]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cosmetics is a boon to every woman, but a girl's best beauty aid is still a near-sighted man]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10202</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like beauteous flowers which vainly waste their scent Of odours in unhaunted deserts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44760]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like beauteous flowers which vainly waste their scent Of odours in unhaunted deserts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44760</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I almost die for food, and let me have it! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13257]]></link><description><![CDATA[I almost die for food, and let me have it!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a besetting vice of democracies to substitute public opinion for law.
