The tribe has elected you to tell its story. You are the shaman/healer, that's what the storyteller is, and I think it's important for actors to appreciate that. Too often actors think it's all about them, when in reality it's all about the audience being able to recognize themselves in you. The more you pull away from the public, the less power you have on screen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59035</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't look on poetry as closed works.

These paintings, these poems, and these demonstrations... are the expression of men who are struggling with their appalling lostness. Dare we laugh at such things? Dare we feel superior when we view their tortured expressions in their art? Christians should stop laughing and take such men seriously. Then we shall have the right to speak again to our generation. These men are dying while they live, yet where is our compassion for them? There is nothing more ugly than an orthodoxy without understanding or without compassion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the passion that is in a kiss that gives to it its sweetness; it is the affection in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2012]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the passion that is in a kiss that gives to it its sweetness; it is the affection in a kiss that sanctifies it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is never death because they live in your heart foever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11218]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is never death because they live in your heart foever.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We came out swinging today and it paid off.
