Modern thought is impersonal. There are, even today, a great many people who understand that man needs salvation, but there are very few who are convinced that he needs forgiveness and redemption... Sin is understood as imperfection, sensuality, worldliness -- but not as guilt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The true object of all human life is play.

You know that the other person does remember. Thus, the past is part of the present as long as the other person lives.
