The apostle calls it the band of perfection; it is the old, and it is the new, and it is the great commandment, and it is all the commandments; for it is the fulfilling of the Law. It does the work of all the graces without any instrument but its own immediate virtue. For as the love of sin makes a man sin against all his own reason, and all the discourses of wisdom, and all the advices of his friends, and without temptation and without opportunity, so does the love of God: it makes a man chaste without the laborious arts of fasting and exterior disciplines, temperate in the midst of feasts, and is active enough to choose it without any intermedial appetites, and reaches at glory through the very heart of grace, without any other aims but those of love. It is a grace that loves God for Himself, and our neighbors for God. The consideration of God's goodness and bounty, the experience of those profitable and excellent emanations from Him, may be, and most commonly are, the first motive of our love; but when we are once entered, and have tasted the goodness of God, we love the spring for its own excellency, passing from passion to reason, from thanking to adoring, from sense to spirit, from considering ourselves to union with God: and this is the image and little representation of heaven; it is beatitude in picture, or rather the infancy and beginning of glory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6897</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The strongest man in the world is he who stands alone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27807]]></link><description><![CDATA[The strongest man in the world is he who stands alone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Knowledge is an unending adventure at the edge of uncertainty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60025]]></link><description><![CDATA[Knowledge is an unending adventure at the edge of uncertainty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60025</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A prudent man does not make the goat his gardener. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17189]]></link><description><![CDATA[A prudent man does not make the goat his gardener.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Go West, young man, and grow up with the country. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48994]]></link><description><![CDATA[Go West, young man, and grow up with the country.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48994</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Loe here the precious dust is layd; Whose purely-temper'd clay was made  So fine that it the guest betray'd. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14092]]></link><description><![CDATA[Loe here the precious dust is layd; Whose purely-temper'd clay was made  So fine that it the guest betray'd.   Else the soule grew so fast within,    It broke the outward shall of sinne     And so was hatch'd a cherubin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14092</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10446]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10446</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Here files of pins extend their shining rows, Puffs, powders, patches, bibles, billet-doux. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60385]]></link><description><![CDATA[Here files of pins extend their shining rows, Puffs, powders, patches, bibles, billet-doux.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60385</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have not yet begun to fight! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47229]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have not yet begun to fight!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47229</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is impossible to walk rapidly and be unhappy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60099]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is impossible to walk rapidly and be unhappy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60099</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are born into the world of nature; our second birth is into theworld of spirit. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22769]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are born into the world of nature; our second birth is into theworld of spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of All Saints   You have nothing to do but to save souls.
