A hard necessity that is, not to want something which can not be avoided. If it could be managed, we would much rather not die; we would like to become like the angels by some other means than death. "We have a building from God," says St. Paul, "a home not made with hands, everlasting in heaven. For indeed we groan, longing to be clothed over with our dwelling from heaven; provided, though we be found clothed, and not naked. For indeed we who are in this dwelling place groan, being burdened; in that we do not wish to be stripped, but to covered over, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life." We want to reach the kingdom of God, but we don't want to travel by way of death. And yet there stands Necessity saying: "This way, please." Do you hesitate, man, to go this way, when this is the way that God came to you?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sell not virtue to purchase wealth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60800]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sell not virtue to purchase wealth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60800</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They came together and talked to each other, played very smart.

Its complete bondage to nature has enclosed the mind and spirit of man in a fast prison out of which, try as he may, he can find no way of escape. The inability to perceive any longer the reality of things invisible and unseen is a sickness of the soul which cries out to be cured. The only way to dispel the darkness of the present age and liberate it from the prison within which it has become bound is to restore the proper relationship of nature to supernature and of time to eternity as an essential feature of external reality. Until this can be accomplished, there is really very little that the Church or Christianity in general has to offer to this age.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7567</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are going to continue to work and focus on defense.

Our environment itself -- our home and our job -- is the medium through which we experience His moulding action and His besetting love. It is not Christian to try to get out of our frame, or to separate our outward life from our life of prayer, since both are the creation of one Charity. The third-rate little town in the hills, with its limited social contacts and monotonous manual work, reproves us when we begin to fuss about our opportunities and our score. And this quality of quietness, ordinariness, simplicity, with which the saving action of God enters history, endures from the beginning to the end.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Equality of the general rules of law and conduct, however, is the only kind of equality conducive to liberty and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47394]]></link><description><![CDATA[Equality of the general rules of law and conduct, however, is the only kind of equality conducive to liberty and the only equality which we can secure without destroying liberty. Not only has liberty nothing to do with any other sort of equality, but it is even bound to produce inequality in many respects. This is the necessary result and part of the justification of individual liberty: if the result of individual liberty did not demonstrate that some manners of living are more successful than others, much of the case for it would vanish.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47394</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As if you could kill time without injuring eternity. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63581]]></link><description><![CDATA[As if you could kill time without injuring eternity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What does not destroy me, makes me strong. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57943]]></link><description><![CDATA[What does not destroy me, makes me strong.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57943</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Usually you can point the finger at the consumers of intel ... the political and military leaders ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42192]]></link><description><![CDATA[Usually you can point the finger at the consumers of intel ... the political and military leaders]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42192</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's an old cliche, but we've still got to get one more win.
