Even when the words do not seem harsh or offensive, the impact is shattering. What we could be experiencing is the intent behind the words. When we intend to do good, we do. When we intend to do harm, it happens. What each of us must come to realize is that our intent always comes through. We cannot sugarcoat the feelings in our heart of hearts. The emotion is the energy that motivates. We cannot ignore what we really want to create. We should be honest and do it the way we feel it. What we owe to ourselves and everyone around is to examine the reasons of our true intent.My intent will be evident in the results.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While intelligent people can often simplify the complex, a fool is more likely to complicate the simple. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1250]]></link><description><![CDATA[While intelligent people can often simplify the complex, a fool is more likely to complicate the simple.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He is a benefactor of mankind who contracts the great rules of life into short sentences, that may be easily ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52869]]></link><description><![CDATA[He is a benefactor of mankind who contracts the great rules of life into short sentences, that may be easily impressed on the memory, and so recur habitually to the mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Use the losses and failures of the past as a reason for action, not inaction. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44190]]></link><description><![CDATA[Use the losses and failures of the past as a reason for action, not inaction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44190</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We knew it would rain, for the poplars showed The white of their leaves, the amber grain  Shrunk in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52929]]></link><description><![CDATA[We knew it would rain, for the poplars showed The white of their leaves, the amber grain  Shrunk in the wind,--and the lightning now   Is tangled in tremulous skeins of rain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After the conquest of Afric, Greece, the lesser Asia, and Syria were brought into Italy all the sorts of their ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2951]]></link><description><![CDATA[After the conquest of Afric, Greece, the lesser Asia, and Syria were brought into Italy all the sorts of their Mala, which we interprete apples, and might signify no more at first; but were afterwards applied to many other foreign fruits.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our Adversary majors in three things: noise, hurry and crowds.

In my view, that means to speak on the one hand metaphysically, and on the other individualistically. Neither of these is relevant to the Bible message or to the man of today. Is it not true to say that individualistic concern for personal salvation has almost completely left us all? Are we not really under the impression that there are more important things than bothering about such a matter? (Perhaps not more important than the matter itself, but more than bothering about it). I know it sounds pretty monstrous to say that. But is it not, at bottom, even Biblical?... It is not with the next world that we are concerned, but with this world as created and preserved and set subject to laws and atoned for and made new. What is above the world is, in the Gospel, intended to exist for this world -- I mean that not in the anthropocentric sense of liberal, pietistic, ethical theology, but in the Bible sense of the creation and of the incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One must be truthful with oneself about one's own motives, especiallyif one is to survive in the world.

He had many, but His favourite was to their chivalry and valour. Often He underlines the difficulties of discipleship, warns us what it will cost, that it means risk and loss and sacrifice, and pulling hard against fierce currents; and then He turns and looks at us, with that honouring trust of His in us that sets the blood tingling and makes the cheeks flush with pride. That, He says quietly, is why I am so sure that you will come: you are too big to keep out of it! And, indeed, in His own day, it was only daring and adventurous spirits who would risk declaring for Him, as it is only daring and adventurous spirits still who have the pluck to try to follow so original and unpopular a Master in the real living-out of life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Can it be, O Christ in heaven, that the holiest suffer most, That the strongest wander furthest, and more hopelessly ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58210]]></link><description><![CDATA[Can it be, O Christ in heaven, that the holiest suffer most, That the strongest wander furthest, and more hopelessly are lost?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58210</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the lightning strikes but one, not one only does it terrify. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50809]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the lightning strikes but one, not one only does it terrify.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He confesses his guilt who flies from his trial. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50550]]></link><description><![CDATA[He confesses his guilt who flies from his trial.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50550</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To believe what has not occurred in history will not occur at all, isto argue disbelief in the dignity of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21099]]></link><description><![CDATA[To believe what has not occurred in history will not occur at all, isto argue disbelief in the dignity of man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21099</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money, the root of all evil...but the cure for all sadness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15829]]></link><description><![CDATA[Money, the root of all evil...but the cure for all sadness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15829</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many heroes lived before Agamemnon, but they are all unmourned, and consigned to oblivion, because they had no bard to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19234]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many heroes lived before Agamemnon, but they are all unmourned, and consigned to oblivion, because they had no bard to sing their praises. [Lat., Vixere fortes ante Agamemnona  Multi: sed omnes illacrimabiles   Urgentur, ignotique longa    Nocte, carent quia vate sacro.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19234</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56257]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56257</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you fear making anyone mad, then you ultimately probe for the lowest common denominator of human achievement. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/379]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you fear making anyone mad, then you ultimately probe for the lowest common denominator of human achievement.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/379</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We learned about different types of technology like communications and transportation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42661]]></link><description><![CDATA[We learned about different types of technology like communications and transportation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Doubt is uncomfortable, certainty is ridiculous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12738]]></link><description><![CDATA[Doubt is uncomfortable, certainty is ridiculous.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12738</guid></item></channel></rss>
