But if you can make the tree your own property, then all the fruits will be your own. In the same way, if God is your own, then all things in Heaven and on earth will be your own, because He is your Father and is everything to you; otherwise you will have to go and ask like a beggar for certain things. When they are used up, you will have to ask again. So ask not for gifts but for the Giver of Gifts: not for life but for the Giver of Life -- then life and the things needed for life will be added unto you.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art is the most passionate orgy within man's grasp. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3254]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art is the most passionate orgy within man's grasp.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We intend to do a massive world tour with Demon Days, but I won't be involved with it.
