Sin for him is not a moral failure; it is not even disobedience. Disobedience is a consequence but not the cause. The cause is: turning away from God, and from God as the highest good, as the love with which God loves Himself, through us. For this reason, since sin has this character -- if you say "sins", it is easily dissolved into moral sins; but sin is first of all basically the power of turning away from God. For this very reason, no moral remedy is possible. Only one remedy is possible: return to God. But this of course is possible only in the power of God, and this power is lost. This is the state of man under the conditions of existence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7651</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One step at a time is good walking. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61089]]></link><description><![CDATA[One step at a time is good walking.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61089</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The people recognize themselves in their commodities; they find their soul in their automobile, hi-fi set, split-level home, kitchen equipment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2875]]></link><description><![CDATA[The people recognize themselves in their commodities; they find their soul in their automobile, hi-fi set, split-level home, kitchen equipment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2875</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It has a real impact. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29143]]></link><description><![CDATA[It has a real impact.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marriage is three parts love and seven parts forgiveness of sins. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56366]]></link><description><![CDATA[Marriage is three parts love and seven parts forgiveness of sins.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56366</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I now realize that the small hills you see on ski slopes are formed around the bodies of forty-seven-year-olds who ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56500]]></link><description><![CDATA[I now realize that the small hills you see on ski slopes are formed around the bodies of forty-seven-year-olds who tried to learn snowboarding.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56500</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, father's gone to market-town, he was up before the day, And Jamie's after robins, and the man is making ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58260]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh, father's gone to market-town, he was up before the day, And Jamie's after robins, and the man is making hay,  And whistling down the hollow goes the boy that minds the mill,   While mother from the kitchen door is calling with a will,    "Polly!--Polly!--The cows are in the corn!     Oh, where's Polly?"]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58260</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our native land charms us with inexpressible sweetness, and never never allows us to forget that we belong to it. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45802]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our native land charms us with inexpressible sweetness, and never never allows us to forget that we belong to it. [Lat., Nescio qua natale solum dulcedine captos  Ducit, et immemores non sinit esse sui.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Simple is the language of truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51180]]></link><description><![CDATA[Simple is the language of truth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The pursuit of truth will set you free; even if you never catch up with it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2073]]></link><description><![CDATA[The pursuit of truth will set you free; even if you never catch up with it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2073</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You are within God.
