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[China is expected to eliminate some key restrictions by January of 2005.

For if philosophers become kings or scientists commissars, they become politicians, and the powers given to the state are powers given to men who are rulers of states, men subject to all the limitations and temptations of their dangerous craft. Unless this is borne in mind, there will be a dangerous optimistic tendency to sweep aside doubts and fears as irrelevant, since, in the state that the projectors have in mind, power will be exercised by men of a wisdom and degree of moral virtue that we have not yet seen. It won't. It will be exercised by men who will be men first and rulers next and scientists and saints long after.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're trying to get him in the NFL Hall now and that's going to be tough. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33896]]></link><description><![CDATA[We're trying to get him in the NFL Hall now and that's going to be tough.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is your mind that matters economically, as much or more than your mouth or hands.

We shall find ourselves advancing in our course; we shall feel the presence of God; we shall experience His love; we shall live in the enjoyment of His favour and in the hope of His glory... You often feel that your prayers scarcely reach the ceiling; but, oh, get into this humble spirit by considering how good the Lord is, and how evil you all are, and then prayer will mount on wings of faith to heaven. The sigh, the groan of a broken heart, will soon go through the ceiling up to heaven, aye, into the very bosom of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O for a lodge in a garden of cucumbers! O for an iceberg or two at control!  O for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58264]]></link><description><![CDATA[O for a lodge in a garden of cucumbers! O for an iceberg or two at control!  O for a vale that at midday the dew cumbers!   O for a pleasure trip up to the pole!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58264</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Can you picture my prophecy? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52964]]></link><description><![CDATA[Can you picture my prophecy?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52964</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Acquaintance is a degree of friendship called slight when its object is poor and obscure, and intimate when he is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/401]]></link><description><![CDATA[Acquaintance is a degree of friendship called slight when its object is poor and obscure, and intimate when he is rich and famous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/401</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is impossible to tell where the law stops and justice begins. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64687]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is impossible to tell where the law stops and justice begins.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64687</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In this and like communities, public sentiment is everything.
