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[What they're accustomed to is no great matter, But then, alas! they've read an awful deal.  [Ger., Zwar sind ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53012]]></link><description><![CDATA[What they're accustomed to is no great matter, But then, alas! they've read an awful deal.  [Ger., Zwar sind sie an das Beste nicht gewohnt,   Allein sie haben schrecklich viel gelesen.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature has given man one tongue, but two ears, that we may hear twice as much as we speak ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43758]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature has given man one tongue, but two ears, that we may hear twice as much as we speak]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43758</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Flattery is all right if you don't inhale. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16185]]></link><description><![CDATA[Flattery is all right if you don't inhale.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16185</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good children's literature appeals not only to the child in the adult, but to the adult in the child. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25282]]></link><description><![CDATA[Good children's literature appeals not only to the child in the adult, but to the adult in the child.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59610]]></link><description><![CDATA[And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And the only thing to do with a sin is to confess, do penance and then, after some kind of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65093]]></link><description><![CDATA[And the only thing to do with a sin is to confess, do penance and then, after some kind of decent interval, ask for forgiveness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Observe constantly that all things take place by change, and accustom thyself to consider that the nature of the Universe ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14344]]></link><description><![CDATA[Observe constantly that all things take place by change, and accustom thyself to consider that the nature of the Universe loves nothing so much as to change the things which are, and to make new things like them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14344</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we had the slowest bus driver in Pennsylvania. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37572]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think we had the slowest bus driver in Pennsylvania.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our envy of others devours us most of all. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14038]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our envy of others devours us most of all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14038</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Goths don't identify with evil, we mourn the evil in society.
