The highest life that is natural and creaturely can go no higher than this: it can only be a bare capacity for goodness and cannot possibly be a good and happy life but by the life of God dwelling in it and in union with it. And this is the two-fold life that, of all necessity, must be united in every good and happy and perfect creature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7251</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had more chances tonight.
