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://maxioms.com/maxiom/7266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All Italians are plunderers. [It., Gli Italiani tutti ladroni.]  Not all but a good part.   [It., Non ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23099]]></link><description><![CDATA[All Italians are plunderers. [It., Gli Italiani tutti ladroni.]  Not all but a good part.   [It., Non tutti, ma buona parte.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23099</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kill a man, and you are an assassin.
