His love of God and his love of neighbor are two distinct virtues that have no common quality but only a common source. Love of God is adoration of the only true good; it is gratitude to the bestower of all gifts; it is joy in holiness; it is "consent to Being." But the love of man is pitiful rather than adoring; it is giving and forgiving rather than grateful. It suffers for them in their viciousness and profaneness; it does not consent to accept them as they are, but calls them to repentance. The love of God is nonpossessive Eros; the love of man pure Agape; the love of God is passion; the love of man, compassion. There is duality here, but not of like-minded interest in two great values, God and man. It is rather the duality of the Son of Man and Son of God, who loves God as man should love Him, and loves man as only God can love, with powerful pity for those who are foundering.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6491</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer . ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63362]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer .]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63362</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Aside from a handful of guys boxing is missing the good trainers, that's why our sport is so in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28858]]></link><description><![CDATA[Aside from a handful of guys boxing is missing the good trainers, that's why our sport is so in the air now because we don't have people who have the capability to not only train fighters but also train and create decent respectable citizens of the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28858</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reality is what we take to be true.

Not fiends incarnate, but plain flesh and blood like us; quite ordinary men, decent and kindly souls enough, some of whom, no doubt, went to their homes that day from Calvary and took their children on their knees and loved them very genuinely. Only, they were a bit old fashioned in the make-up of their minds, had grown stiff and inelastic in their thinking, inhospitable to new notions -- surely a very minor sin at worst -- and some feared for their vested interests; and one, poor Pilate, had lost his temper with these impossible Jews in days gone by, and had received a curt warning from Rome that there must be no further bloodshed in Jerusalem, and here was a new trouble at the very worst of times in the whole year, with fanatics in tens of thousands come up for the Feast; and one wanted to save the world by quick-running machinery, and so put Christ into a situation where He could no longer dilly-dally but must do something vivid, dramatic, revolutionary. And the people? No need for us to bother being there at the decision between Jesus and Barabbas. We had the lined streets cheering for Him yesterday. And we have relatives to see, and messages from neighbours to deliver to their kindred. He will be all right; we needn't worry to be there. Such simple and plebian sins -- minds grown a trifle out of date, a little selfishness, some temper and its consequences, a bit of worldly wisdom, and an indifference that did nothing at all -- these brought about the shame of mankind, and the tragedy of history, and the blot upon our annals that will not rub out. And they are all of them within your heart and mine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is so difficult but that man will accomplish it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50310]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is so difficult but that man will accomplish it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wolf was sick, he vowed a monk to be: But when he got well, a wolf once more was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53499]]></link><description><![CDATA[The wolf was sick, he vowed a monk to be: But when he got well, a wolf once more was he.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53499</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beauty of whatever kind, in its supreme development, invariably excites the sensitive soul to tears. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55149]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beauty of whatever kind, in its supreme development, invariably excites the sensitive soul to tears.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ill natures, the more you aske them, the more they stick. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49527]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ill natures, the more you aske them, the more they stick.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47874]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2639]]></link><description><![CDATA[A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The essence of war is violence.
