The Bible is not an end in itself, but a means to bring men to an intimate and satisfying knowledge of God, that they may enter into Him, that they may delight in His presence, may taste and know the inner sweetness of the very God Himself in the core and center of their hearts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God be thank'd that the dead have left still Good undone for the living to do--  Still some aim ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62132]]></link><description><![CDATA[God be thank'd that the dead have left still Good undone for the living to do--  Still some aim for the heart and the will   And the soul of a man to pursue.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62132</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I smile so much at the theater my face hurts when I leave. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66216]]></link><description><![CDATA[I smile so much at the theater my face hurts when I leave.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A desire presupposes the possibility of action to achieve it; action presupposes a goal which is worth achieving. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63464]]></link><description><![CDATA[A desire presupposes the possibility of action to achieve it; action presupposes a goal which is worth achieving.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63464</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I live in Seattle, but I never see this much traffic clustered in one place. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30434]]></link><description><![CDATA[I live in Seattle, but I never see this much traffic clustered in one place.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fish, to taste right, must swim 3 times -- in water, in butter and in wine. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58639]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fish, to taste right, must swim 3 times -- in water, in butter and in wine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58639</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The future will be better tomorrow ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17113]]></link><description><![CDATA[The future will be better tomorrow]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17113</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Deeds of violence in our society are performed largely by those trying to establish their self-esteem, to defend their self-image, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57031]]></link><description><![CDATA[Deeds of violence in our society are performed largely by those trying to establish their self-esteem, to defend their self-image, and to demonstrate that they, too, are significant.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57031</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe the true function of age is memory.
