I have always wagered against God and I regard the little that I have won in this world as simply the outcome of this bet. However paltry may have been the stake (my life) I am conscious of having won to the full. Everything that is doddering, squint-eyed, vile, polluted and grotesque is summoned up for me in that one word: God!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4100]]></link><description><![CDATA[Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Busy bees chasedthe bloom chasteThough they crawled on herclothesher petals unfoldedand those held closestill ever faithful to the sunis the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1997]]></link><description><![CDATA[Busy bees chasedthe bloom chasteThough they crawled on herclothesher petals unfoldedand those held closestill ever faithful to the sunis the everpure roseWhether her hueis violet or roseWhether she growsin freedom or rowsever to God in waves arosethe love perfumefrom the heart of the rose.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1997</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sharing is loving. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56156]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sharing is loving.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56156</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In an age when man has forgotten his origins and is blind even to his most essential needs for survival, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61277]]></link><description><![CDATA[In an age when man has forgotten his origins and is blind even to his most essential needs for survival, water along with other resources has become the victim of his indifference]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Besides, they always smell of bread and butter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5900]]></link><description><![CDATA[Besides, they always smell of bread and butter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5900</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are two ways of being rich.

Over the last year we've had a little of this indigestion from a lot of mergers over a short period.

Friend and foe alike are agreed on the question of the character of Jesus Christ... Whatever our creed, we stand with admiration before the sublime character of Jesus. Character is supreme in life, and hence Jesus stood supreme in the supreme thing -- so supreme that, when we think of the ideal, we do not add virtue to virtue, but think of Jesus Christ, so that the standard of human life is no longer a code, but a character.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Civilization is a limitless multiplication of unnecessary necessities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8831]]></link><description><![CDATA[Civilization is a limitless multiplication of unnecessary necessities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8831</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Holy Innocents  The Bible is the written word of God, and because it is written it ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7218]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Holy Innocents  The Bible is the written word of God, and because it is written it is confined and limited by the necessities of ink and paper and leather. The Voice of God, however, is alive and free as the sovereign God is free. "The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life." The life is in the speaking words. God's word in the Bible can have power only because it corresponds to God's word in the universe. It is the present Voice which makes the written Word all-powerful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am very pleased with today's wave of signings.
