It does not love him because he is such-and-such a person but because he is there. In all this it is quite the opposite of natural love: it "does not seek its own". It does not perform the characteristic natural impulse of love and life. Therefore it is basically independent of the conduct of the other person; it is not conditional but absolute. It wants nothing for itself but only for others. Therefore it is also not vulnerable. It never "reacts" but is always "spontaneous", emerging by its own strength -- rather, from the power of God. Love is the real God-likeness of man for which he has been created. In so far as love is in man he really resembles God and shows himself to be the child of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not the want, but rather abundance that creates avarice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/233]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not the want, but rather abundance that creates avarice.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/233</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Necessity is blind until it becomes conscious.
