The Gospel is full of divine attempts to help and heal, in the body, mind and heart, individual men. The completed beauty of Christ's life is only the added beauty of little inconspicuous acts of beauty -- talking with the woman at the well; going far up into the North country to talk with the Syrophenician woman; showing the young ruler the stealthy ambition laid away in his heart, that kept him out of the kingdom of Heaven; shedding a tear at the grave of Lazarus; teaching a little knot of followers how to pray; preaching the Gospel one Sunday afternoon to two disciples going out to Emmaus; kindling a fire and broiling fish, that His disciples might have a breakfast waiting for them when they came ashore after a night of fishing, cold, tired, discouraged. All of these things, you see, let us in so easily into the real quality and tone of God's interests, so specific, so narrowed down, so enlisted in what is small, so engrossed in what is minute.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel like I am back at 100 percent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40354]]></link><description><![CDATA[I feel like I am back at 100 percent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40354</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We knew it was going to be a tough battle.

There is a multitude of these things wherever people live together. Nobody is too good for the meanest service...   We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God. God will be constantly crossing our paths and canceling our plans by sending us people with claims and petitions. We may pass them by, preoccupied with our more important tasks, as the priest passed by the man who had fallen among thieves, perhaps -- reading the Bible. When we do that, we pass by the visible sign of the Cross raised athwart our path to show us that not our way, but God's way must be done.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8608</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9040]]></link><description><![CDATA[To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44055]]></link><description><![CDATA[Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44055</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The notion of terror to overcome terrorism, violence to overcome violence, is counterproductive. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33934]]></link><description><![CDATA[The notion of terror to overcome terrorism, violence to overcome violence, is counterproductive.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/125]]></link><description><![CDATA[If men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/125</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wasn't born to be a fighter.
