Yet they are quite incapable of filling the gap, because this infinite gulf can only be filled by an infinite and immutable object -- that is, God, Himself. He alone is man's veritable good, and since man has deserted Him it is a strange thing that there is nothing in nature that has not been capable of taking His place for man: stars, sky, earth, elements, plants, cabbages, leeks, animals, insects, calves, serpents, fever, plague, war, famine, vices, adultery, incest. And since he has lost the true good, everything can equally appear to him as such -- even his own destruction, though that is so contrary at once to God, to reason, and to nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The principles we live by, in business and in social life, are the most important part of happiness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43111]]></link><description><![CDATA[The principles we live by, in business and in social life, are the most important part of happiness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43111</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think, in general, most people go to the pump and they see what the price is.
