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[Over and over again mediocrity is promoted because real worth isn't to be found. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26763]]></link><description><![CDATA[Over and over again mediocrity is promoted because real worth isn't to be found.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26763</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A person who aims at nothing is sure to hit it ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16294]]></link><description><![CDATA[A person who aims at nothing is sure to hit it]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16294</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sins become more subtle as you grow older: you commit sins of despair rather than lust. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56408]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sins become more subtle as you grow older: you commit sins of despair rather than lust.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56408</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art of giving orders is not to try to rectify the minor blunders and not to be swayed by ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45251]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art of giving orders is not to try to rectify the minor blunders and not to be swayed by petty doubts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45251</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Opinions have vested interests just as men have. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45008]]></link><description><![CDATA[Opinions have vested interests just as men have.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45008</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Speech was given to man to disguise his thoughts. [Fr., La parole a ete donnce a l'homme pour deguiser sa ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51680]]></link><description><![CDATA[Speech was given to man to disguise his thoughts. [Fr., La parole a ete donnce a l'homme pour deguiser sa pensee.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51680</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One of the great mind destroyers of college education is the belief that if it's very complex, it's very profound. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8952]]></link><description><![CDATA[One of the great mind destroyers of college education is the belief that if it's very complex, it's very profound.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8952</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trifles go to make perfection, And perfection is no trifle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46125]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trifles go to make perfection, And perfection is no trifle.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Real love is a permanently self-enlarging experience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64321]]></link><description><![CDATA[Real love is a permanently self-enlarging experience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64321</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We do that in our zeal our calmer moment would be afraid to answer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62635]]></link><description><![CDATA[We do that in our zeal our calmer moment would be afraid to answer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On one occasion some one put a very little wine into a wine cooler, and said that it was sixteen ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1710]]></link><description><![CDATA[On one occasion some one put a very little wine into a wine cooler, and said that it was sixteen years old.
