If a female friend lets on that she is going out with another man, be kind and understanding. If she says she would like to go out with the Dallas Cowboys, including the coaching staff, the same rule applies. Tell her: "Kath, you just go right ahead and do what you feel is right." Unless you actually care for her, in which case you must see to it that she has no male contact whatsoever.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1010</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are a lot of wonderful candidates out there, and to be selected shocked me.

If, after all His claims and promises, Christ had died and merely lived on as a fragrant memory, He would only be revered as an extremely good but profoundly mistaken man. His claims to be God, His claims to be Himself the very principle of life, would be mere self-delusion. His authoritative pronouncements on the nature of God and Man and Life would be at once suspect. Why should He be right about the lesser things, if He was proved to be completely wrong in the greater?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7756</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each man has his fancy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50824]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each man has his fancy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50824</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Josephine Butler, Social Reformer, 1906 Commemoration of Apolo Kivebulaya, Priest, Evangelist, 1933  [Christ] tells us plainly, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6638]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Josephine Butler, Social Reformer, 1906 Commemoration of Apolo Kivebulaya, Priest, Evangelist, 1933  [Christ] tells us plainly, and without any qualifications, that we are involved in a war in which there is no room for neutrals. Yet people attempt to evade His statement. Generally speaking, these are the very people who are the quickest in laying the blame upon God for all the sorrow and sin in the world. They argue that He could prevent it. They excuse their own do-nothing attitude by making of evil's apparent predominance a ground for doubt of His loving kindness. It never seems to occur to them to look for the cause in mankind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6638</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To waken interest and kindle enthusiasm is the sure way to teach easily and successfully. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22276]]></link><description><![CDATA[To waken interest and kindle enthusiasm is the sure way to teach easily and successfully.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22276</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Desperation is a necessary ingredient to learning anything, or creating anything.
