Now I ask for God. Supposing there is a tree full of fruits -- you will have to go and buy or beg the fruits from the owner of the tree. Every day you would have to go for one or two fruits. But if you can make the tree your own property, then all the fruits will be your own. In the same way, if God is your own, then all things in Heaven and on earth will be your own, because He is your Father and is everything to you; otherwise you will have to go and ask like a beggar for certain things. When they are used up, you will have to ask again. So ask not for gifts but for the Giver of Gifts: not for life but for the Giver of Life -- then life and the things needed for life will be added unto you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Think you if Laura had been Petrarch's wife He would have written sonnets all his life? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48771]]></link><description><![CDATA[Think you if Laura had been Petrarch's wife He would have written sonnets all his life?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48771</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Adversity makes a man wise, not rich ... ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/712]]></link><description><![CDATA[Adversity makes a man wise, not rich ...]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/712</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He jests at scars that never felt a wound ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58192]]></link><description><![CDATA[He jests at scars that never felt a wound]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Can you make a mistake and miss your fate? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66107]]></link><description><![CDATA[Can you make a mistake and miss your fate?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66107</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your absence of mind we have borne, till your presence of body came to be called in question by it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/147]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your absence of mind we have borne, till your presence of body came to be called in question by it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/147</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of William Morris, Artist, Writer, 1896 Commemoration of George Kennedy Bell, Bishop of Chichester, Ecumenist, Peacemaker, 1958  We ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7201]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of William Morris, Artist, Writer, 1896 Commemoration of George Kennedy Bell, Bishop of Chichester, Ecumenist, Peacemaker, 1958  We admit no faith to be justifying, which is not itself and in its own nature a spiritually vital principle of obedience and good works.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7201</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think what the [lawsuit] is going to do is have people realize that the government is there to protect ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40001]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think what the [lawsuit] is going to do is have people realize that the government is there to protect consumers, not to protect one competitor over another,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you jump for joy, beware that no one moves the ground from beneath your feet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5537]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you jump for joy, beware that no one moves the ground from beneath your feet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are so vain that we even care for the opinion of those we don't care for. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47703]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are so vain that we even care for the opinion of those we don't care for.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47703</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Houses are built to live in and not to look on. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19892]]></link><description><![CDATA[Houses are built to live in and not to look on.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19892</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think the semifinal match showed just how much heart and dedication Jared has.
