We are personalities in the making, limited, and grappling with things too high for us. Obviously we, at very best, will make many mistakes, but these mistakes need not be sins. Our actions are the results of our intentions and our intelligence. Our intentions may be very good, but, because the intelligence is limited, the action may turn out to be a mistake -- a mistake, but not necessarily a sin, for sin comes out of a wrong intention. And therefore the action carries a sense of incompleteness and frustration, but not of guilt. Victorious living does not mean perfect living in the sense of living without flaw, but it does mean adequate living, and that can be consistent with many mistakes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8427</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She is kept alive on the milk of asses which she takes with her wherever she goes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50482]]></link><description><![CDATA[She is kept alive on the milk of asses which she takes with her wherever she goes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50482</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Customers will have an easier time paying smaller monthly bills, so we will expect to see fewer cases of customers ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32814]]></link><description><![CDATA[Customers will have an easier time paying smaller monthly bills, so we will expect to see fewer cases of customers walking away without paying a final bill because it is just too high.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32814</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[See! from the brake the whirring pheasant springs, And mounts exulting on triumphant wings:  Short is his joy; he ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46449]]></link><description><![CDATA[See! from the brake the whirring pheasant springs, And mounts exulting on triumphant wings:  Short is his joy; he feels the fiery wound,   Flutters in blood, and panting beats the ground.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Give me, kind Heaven, a private station, A mind serene for contemplation:  Title and profit I resign;   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19724]]></link><description><![CDATA[Give me, kind Heaven, a private station, A mind serene for contemplation:  Title and profit I resign;   The post of honor shall be mine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This (assassination) is against our principles and my principles, and I would never do such a thing in my life, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29894]]></link><description><![CDATA[This (assassination) is against our principles and my principles, and I would never do such a thing in my life, ...

They are what they always have been, the individual's problems -- the meaning of life and death, the mastery of self, the quest for value and worth-whileness and freedom within, the transcending of loneliness, the longing for love and a sense of significance, and for peace. Society's problems are deep, but the individual's problems go deeper; Solzhenitsyn, Dostoyevsky, or Shakespeare will show us that, if we hesitate to take it from the Bible.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6345</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our species is the only creative species, and it has only one creative instrument, the individual mind and spirit of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52417]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our species is the only creative species, and it has only one creative instrument, the individual mind and spirit of a man.
