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[Life is a jest, and all things show it, I thought so once, and now I know it ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23217]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is a jest, and all things show it, I thought so once, and now I know it]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23217</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All power is a trust; that we are accountable for its exercise; that from the people and for the people ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52508]]></link><description><![CDATA[All power is a trust; that we are accountable for its exercise; that from the people and for the people all springs, and all must exist.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are three terrible ages of childhood - 1 to 10, 10 to 20, and 20 to 30. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32019]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are three terrible ages of childhood - 1 to 10, 10 to 20, and 20 to 30.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32019</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Martin Luther King challenged the conscience of my generation, and his words and his legacy continue to move generations to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26470]]></link><description><![CDATA[Martin Luther King challenged the conscience of my generation, and his words and his legacy continue to move generations to action today at home and around the world. His love and faith is alive in millions of Americans who volunteer each day in soup kitchens or in schools, or who refused to ignore the suffering of millions they'd never met in far-away places when a tsunami brought unthinkable destruction.

It would not be true to affirm that the denominations are not religious groups with religious purposes; but it is true that they represent the accommodation of religion to the caste system. They are emblems, therefore, of the victory of the world over the church, of the secularization of Christianity, of the church's sanction of that divisiveness which the church's gospel condemns.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6473</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not that I have the power to clutch my hand When his fair angels would salute by palm,  But ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3934]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not that I have the power to clutch my hand When his fair angels would salute by palm,  But for my hand, as unattempted yet,   Like a poor beggar, raileth on the rich.    Well, whiles I am a beggar, I will rail     And say there is no sin but to be rich;      And being rich, my virtue then shall be       To say there is no vice but beggary.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those vices [luxury and neglect of decent manners] are vices of men, not of the times. [Lat., Hominum sunt ista ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60509]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those vices [luxury and neglect of decent manners] are vices of men, not of the times. [Lat., Hominum sunt ista [vitia], non temporum.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Territory is but the body of a nation.
