Criminal laws are laws, imposed on men, who are already in existence, with or without their consent, and, with the possible exception of capital punishment for murder, there is no logical relation between the nature of a crime and the penalty inflicted for committing it. If God created man, then the laws of man's spiritual nature must, like the laws of his physical nature, be laws -- laws, that is to say, which he is free to defy but no more free to break than he can break the law of gravity by jumping out of the window, or the laws of biochemistry by getting drunk -- and the consequences of defying them must be as inevitable and as intrinsically related to their nature as a broken leg or a hangover. To state spiritual laws in the imperative -- Thou shalt love God with all thy being, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself -- is simply a pedagogical technique, as when a mother says to her small son, "Stay away from the window!" because the child does not yet know what will happen if he falls out of it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8118</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Denys, Bishop of Paris, & his Companions, Martyrs, 258 Commemoration of Robert Grosseteste, Bishop of Lincoln, Philosopher, Scientist, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6578]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Denys, Bishop of Paris, & his Companions, Martyrs, 258 Commemoration of Robert Grosseteste, Bishop of Lincoln, Philosopher, Scientist, 1253  It is of the greatest importance for the soul to go to prayer with confidence, and such a pure and disinterested love as seeks nothing from the Father but the ability to please Him and to do His will; for a child who only proportions his diligence to his hope of reward renders himself unworthy of all reward. Go, then, to prayer, not that ye may enjoy spiritual delights, but that ye may be full or empty, just as it pleaseth God. This will preserve you in an evenness of spirit, either in desertion or in consolation, and will prevent your being surprised at dryness, or the apparent repulses of Him who is altogether Love. Constant prayer is to keep the heart always right towards God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling. -Margaret Lee Runbeck. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18718]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling. -Margaret Lee Runbeck.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18718</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where there is no difference, there is only indifference. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12219]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where there is no difference, there is only indifference.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A multinational company operating in Canada will have to have dozens and dozens of contracts with everybody who supplies them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32867]]></link><description><![CDATA[A multinational company operating in Canada will have to have dozens and dozens of contracts with everybody who supplies them with any personal information, including their own subsidiaries,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32867</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a bull moose, walking right through town.
