And shouldst thou curse any man that had never offended, never transgrest, never trespass thee? Can God have done so? Will God curse man, before man have sinned?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It’s often just enough to be with someone.

You see, gentlemen, how I would answer that question. You are deceived in thinking that the morality of your father was based on Christianity. On the contrary, Christianity presupposed it. That morality stands exactly where it did; its basis has not been withdrawn, for, in a sense, it never had a basis. The ultimate ethical injunctions have always been premises, never conclusions. Kant was perfectly right on that point at least, the imperative is categorical. Unless the ethical is assumed from the outset, no argument will bring you to it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8533</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The friendships which last are those wherein each friend respects the other's dignity to the point of not really wanting ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12266]]></link><description><![CDATA[The friendships which last are those wherein each friend respects the other's dignity to the point of not really wanting anything from him]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never, ever underestimate the power of 'Id Like that. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1220]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never, ever underestimate the power of 'Id Like that.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're in a very negative phase with the stocks right now. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33986]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're in a very negative phase with the stocks right now.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33986</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The concept behind the bill is something that everyone agrees on .

Its concern is with how Israel ought to think of God. To it, the existence of God is not an open question, nor His nature, nor the accessibility of knowledge of Him. God Himself has taken care of that He has made Himself known to His people, and their business is not to feel after Him if haply they may fumblingly find Him, but to hearken to Him as He declares to them what and who He is.

God Himself cannot make a creature to be in itself, or in its own nature, anything else but a state of emptiness. The highest life that is natural and creaturely can go no higher than this: it can only be a bare capacity for goodness and cannot possibly be a good and happy life but by the life of God dwelling in it and in union with it. And this is the two-fold life that, of all necessity, must be united in every good and happy and perfect creature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7251</guid></item></channel></rss>
