Wrath, which is a fourth birth from these three, can have no existence till one or all of these three are contradicted, or have something done to them that is contrary to their will. These four properties generate their own torment. They have no outward cause, nor any inward power of altering themselves. And therefore all self or nature must be in this state until some supernatural good comes into it, or gets a birth in it. Whilst man indeed lives among the vanities of time, his covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath may be in a tolerable state, may hold him to a mixture of peace and trouble; they may have at times their gratifications as well as their torments. But when death has put an end to the vanity of all earthly cheats, the soul that is not born again of the Supernatural Word and Spirit of God, must find itself unavoidably devoured and shut up in its own insatiable, unchangeable, self-tormenting covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It happened so fast.

The trouble with steeling yourself against the harshness of reality is that the same steel that secures your life against being destroyed secures your life also against being opened up and transformed by the holy power that life itself comes from. You can even prevail on your own. But you cannot become human on your own.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[True irreverence is disrespect for another man's god ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23077]]></link><description><![CDATA[True irreverence is disrespect for another man's god]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23077</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Variety alone gives joy; The sweetest meats the soonest cloy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60431]]></link><description><![CDATA[Variety alone gives joy; The sweetest meats the soonest cloy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60431</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's always more expensive to do something than nothing.
