Whatever intelligent creature lives not under this rule of love is so far fallen from the order of his creation, and is, till he returns to this eternal law of love, an apostate from God and incapable of the kingdom of Heaven. Now, if God is alone to be loved for Himself, then no creature is to be loved for itself; and so all self-love in every creature is absolutely condemned. And if all created beings are only to be loved in and for God, then my neighbour is to be loved as I love myself, and I am only to love myself as I love my neighbour or any other created being that is, only in and for God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I tell you the past is a bucket of ashes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45698]]></link><description><![CDATA[I tell you the past is a bucket of ashes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45698</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53750]]></link><description><![CDATA[And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53750</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The idea that you can merchandise candidates for high office like breakfast cereal - that you can gather votes like ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47020]]></link><description><![CDATA[The idea that you can merchandise candidates for high office like breakfast cereal - that you can gather votes like box tops - is, I think, the ultimate indignity to the democratic process.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Impossibilities are merely things which we have not yet learned. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20659]]></link><description><![CDATA[Impossibilities are merely things which we have not yet learned.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20659</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The medicine increases the disease. [Lat., Aegrescitque medendo.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26730]]></link><description><![CDATA[The medicine increases the disease. [Lat., Aegrescitque medendo.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26730</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Education is the period during which you are being instructed by somebody you do not know, about something you do ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13590]]></link><description><![CDATA[Education is the period during which you are being instructed by somebody you do not know, about something you do not want to know.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13590</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To make necessity a virtue (a virtue of necessity). [Lat., Necessitatem in virtutem commutarum.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44048]]></link><description><![CDATA[To make necessity a virtue (a virtue of necessity). [Lat., Necessitatem in virtutem commutarum.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44048</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The irrationality of a thing is no argument against its existence, rather a condition of it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63643]]></link><description><![CDATA[The irrationality of a thing is no argument against its existence, rather a condition of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63643</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've seen more consumer problems resolved because of these sites than there ever could have been.
