Every sin is a sin of the indivisible human being, and the divine reaction against it expresses itself to conscience through the indivisible frame of that world, at once natural and spiritual, in which man lives. We cannot distribute evils into the two classes of physical and moral, and subsequently investigate the relation between them: if we could, it would be of no service here. What we have to understand is that when a man sins he does something in which his whole being participates, and that the reaction of God against his sin is a reaction in which he is conscious (or might be conscious) that the whole system of things is in arms against him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7961</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge.

But men make themselves so unworthy of it that it is only just that God should refuse to some because of the hardness of heart what He gives to others from a compassion that they do not deserve. If He had wanted to overcome the obstinacy of the most hardened, He could have done so by revealing Himself to them so obviously that they could not have doubted the truth of His Being -- just as He will appear at the last day with such a clap of thunder and such an upheaval of nature that the dead will revive and the blindest will see. It is not in this way, however, that He willed to appear at His gentle coming: because so many men had made themselves unworthy of His mercy, He willed to leave them deprived of the good which they did not desire. And so it would not have been fair for Him to have appeared in an obviously divine manner, absolutely capable of convincing all men. But also it would not have been fair for Him to appear in a manner so hidden that even those who were sincerely seeking Him should not be able to recognize Him... So He has tempered His knowledge, by giving marks of Himself which were visible to those who seek Him, and not to those who seek Him not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Ass and the MuleA muleteer set forth on a journey, driving before him an Ass and a Mule, both ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1554]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Ass and the MuleA muleteer set forth on a journey, driving before him an Ass and a Mule, both well laden. The Ass, as long as he traveled along the plain, carried his load with ease, but when he began to ascend the steep path of the mountain, felt his load to be more than he could bear. He entreated his companion to relieve him of a small portion, that he might carry home the rest; but the Mule paid no attention to the request. The Ass shortly afterwards fell down dead under his burden. Not knowing what else to do in so wild a region, the Muleteer placed upon the Mule the load carried by the Ass in addition to his own, and at the top of all placed the hide of the Ass, after he had skinned him. The Mule, groaning beneath his heavy burden, said to himself: I am treated according to my deserts. If I had only been willing to assist the Ass a little in his need, I should not now be bearing, together with his burden, himself as well.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1554</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pleasure to me is wonder—the unexplored, the unexpected, the thing that is hidden and the changeless thing that lurks behind ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65978]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pleasure to me is wonder—the unexplored, the unexpected, the thing that is hidden and the changeless thing that lurks behind superficial mutability.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be honorable yourself if you wish to associate with honorable people. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19734]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be honorable yourself if you wish to associate with honorable people.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19734</guid></item></channel></rss>
