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[Beneath me flows the Rhine, and, like the stream of Time, it flows amid the ruins of the Past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54193]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beneath me flows the Rhine, and, like the stream of Time, it flows amid the ruins of the Past.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54193</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goals. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17629]]></link><description><![CDATA[Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goals.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When Adam delved and Eve span, who was then the gentleman? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57058]]></link><description><![CDATA[When Adam delved and Eve span, who was then the gentleman?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57058</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who reforms himself has done more toward reforming the public than a crowd of noisy, impotent patriots ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53195]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who reforms himself has done more toward reforming the public than a crowd of noisy, impotent patriots]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53195</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you are in Love you can’t fall asleep because reality is better than your dreams. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65733]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you are in Love you can’t fall asleep because reality is better than your dreams.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65733</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm banking on the playoffs now. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41156]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm banking on the playoffs now.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41156</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music and rhythm find their way into the secret places of the soul ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43419]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music and rhythm find their way into the secret places of the soul]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The How To Book of Teen Self Discovery -Doc Childre. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5245]]></link><description><![CDATA[The How To Book of Teen Self Discovery -Doc Childre.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5245</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mordre wol out, that see we day by day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43389]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mordre wol out, that see we day by day.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All things are God's already; we can give him no right, by consecrating any, that he had not before, only ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7461]]></link><description><![CDATA[All things are God's already; we can give him no right, by consecrating any, that he had not before, only we set it apart to his service -- just as a gardener brings his master a basket of apricots, and presents them; his lord thanks him, and perhaps gives him something for his pains, and yet the apricots were as much his lord's before as now.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Literature is my utopia. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25313]]></link><description><![CDATA[Literature is my utopia.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25313</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that riseth betimes hath some thing in his head. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49389]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that riseth betimes hath some thing in his head.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In some airports where a change of terminals is needed, that time can run upwards of two hours.
