I had made myself the centre of my own existence and had my back turned to God. All the beauty and truth which I had discovered had come to me as a reflection of his beauty, but I had kept my eyes fixed on the reflection and was always looking at myself. But God had brought me to the point at which I was compelled to turn away from the reflection, both of myself and of the world which could only mirror my own image. During that night the mirror had been broken, and I had felt abandoned because I could no longer gaze upon the image of my own reason and the finite world which it knew. God had brought me to my knees and made me acknowledge my own nothingness, and out of that knowledge I had been reborn. I was no longer the centre of my life and therefore I could see God in everything.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigues of supporting it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16707]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigues of supporting it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music exalts each joy, allays each grief, expels diseases, softens every pain, subdues the rage of poison, and the plague. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38688]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music exalts each joy, allays each grief, expels diseases, softens every pain, subdues the rage of poison, and the plague.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38688</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What's the use of a fine house if you haven't got a tolerable planet to put it on? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62184]]></link><description><![CDATA[What's the use of a fine house if you haven't got a tolerable planet to put it on?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62184</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Relegating women to second-class citizenship was abolished when Jesus died on the cross. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65110]]></link><description><![CDATA[Relegating women to second-class citizenship was abolished when Jesus died on the cross.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65110</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When his wife asked him to change clothes to meet the German Ambassador: "If they want to see me, here ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2728]]></link><description><![CDATA[When his wife asked him to change clothes to meet the German Ambassador: "If they want to see me, here I am.
