It can corrupt people who otherwise carry on their daily duties with apparent reasonableness and common sense... It exploits man's urgent desire for all the material good things of life -- health, prosperity, success, "good luck" -- and at times, it may even descend to aggressive acts against one's competitors and supposed enemies and rivals. It rests upon an assumption, not always explicit, that divine power can be manipulated and used for human ends. And it is the more dangerous among people who assume that since God is love, He will do whatever they ask, provided they use the right formula in asking.   Magic mocks God's freedom no less than His purpose. For it binds men more and more in a prison of fear and selfishness. Far from liberating divine power, it shuts out the free and creative forces of love and self-sacrifice that alone ennoble life and remove the alienation of men one from another. Love, not compulsion, casts out fear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6287</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is the word used to label the sexual excitement of the young, the habituation of the middle-aged, and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25655]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is the word used to label the sexual excitement of the young, the habituation of the middle-aged, and the mutual dependence of the old.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25655</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The deep joy we take in the company of people with whom we have just recently fallen in love is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23389]]></link><description><![CDATA[The deep joy we take in the company of people with whom we have just recently fallen in love is undisguisable.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't even get an allowance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15849]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't even get an allowance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Courage is simply the willingness to be afraid and act anyway. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10264]]></link><description><![CDATA[Courage is simply the willingness to be afraid and act anyway.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10264</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Despair ruins some, presumption many ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11999]]></link><description><![CDATA[Despair ruins some, presumption many]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11999</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[In all matters of opinion, our adversaries are insane. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17054]]></link><description><![CDATA[In all matters of opinion, our adversaries are insane.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Put your heart, mind, intellect, and soul even into your smallest acts.
