What are the two greatest commandments?

From the Gospel according to Mark 12:28-31

A teacher of the Law was there who heard the discussion. He saw that Jesus had given Sadducees a good answer, so he came to him with a question: "Which commandment is the most important of all?"

Jesus replied, The most important one is this: "Listen, Israel! The Lord our God is the only Lord. Love the Lord our God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength." The second most important commandment is this: "Love your neighbor as you love yourself." There is no other commandment more important than these two.
