The apostle calls it the band of perfection; it is the old, and it is the new, and it is the great commandment, and it is all the commandments; for it is the fulfilling of the Law. It does the work of all the graces without any instrument but its own immediate virtue. For as the love of sin makes a man sin against all his own reason, and all the discourses of wisdom, and all the advices of his friends, and without temptation and without opportunity, so does the love of God: it makes a man chaste without the laborious arts of fasting and exterior disciplines, temperate in the midst of feasts, and is active enough to choose it without any intermedial appetites, and reaches at glory through the very heart of grace, without any other aims but those of love. It is a grace that loves God for Himself, and our neighbors for God. The consideration of God's goodness and bounty, the experience of those profitable and excellent emanations from Him, may be, and most commonly are, the first motive of our love; but when we are once entered, and have tasted the goodness of God, we love the spring for its own excellency, passing from passion to reason, from thanking to adoring, from sense to spirit, from considering ourselves to union with God: and this is the image and little representation of heaven; it is beatitude in picture, or rather the infancy and beginning of glory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6897</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So on he fares, and to the border comes, Of Eden, where delicious Paradise,  Now nearer, crowns with her ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45470]]></link><description><![CDATA[So on he fares, and to the border comes, Of Eden, where delicious Paradise,  Now nearer, crowns with her enclosure green,   As with a rural mound, the champain head    Of a steep wilderness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45470</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Out of mind, when out of view. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48977]]></link><description><![CDATA[Out of mind, when out of view.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A myth is an image in terms of which we try to make sense of the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63473]]></link><description><![CDATA[A myth is an image in terms of which we try to make sense of the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63473</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stubbornness does have its helpful features.

For the system of those who, in order to rid themselves of difficulties, do not hesitate to concede that divine inspiration regards the things of faith and morals, and nothing beyond, because (as they wrongly think) in a question of the truth or falsehood of a passage, we should consider not so much what God has said as the reason and purpose which He had in mind in saying it--this system cannot be tolerated. For all the books which the Church receives as sacred and canonical, are written wholly and entirely, with all their parts, at the dictation of the Holy Ghost: and so far is it from being possible that any error can co-exist with inspiration, that inspiration not only is essentially incompatible with error, but excludes and rejects it as absolutely and necessarily as it is impossible that God Himself, the supreme Truth, can utter that which is not true.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6350</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whenever my condition was improved, instead of its increasing my contentment, it only increased my desire to be free, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9996]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whenever my condition was improved, instead of its increasing my contentment, it only increased my desire to be free, and set me to thinking of plans to gain my freedom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The world cares very little about what a man or woman knows; it is what a man or woman is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/97]]></link><description><![CDATA[The world cares very little about what a man or woman knows; it is what a man or woman is able to do that counts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/97</guid></item></channel></rss>
