Love is sufficient of itself; it pleases by itself and on its own account. Love seeks no cause beyond itself and no fruit. It is its own fruit, its own enjoyment. I love because I love; I love that I may love. Love is a great thing provided it recurs to its beginning, returns to its origin, and draws always from that Fountain which is perpetually in flood. Of all the feelings and affections of the soul, love is the only one by which the creature, though not on equal terms, is able to respond to the Creator and to repay what it has received from Him. For when God loves us He desires nothing but to be loved. He loves for no other reason, indeed, than that He may be loved, knowing that by their love itself those who love Him are blessed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8075</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think it's unethical to take money for poor quality performance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43136]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think it's unethical to take money for poor quality performance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43136</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Imitation is the sincerest form of television. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14507]]></link><description><![CDATA[Imitation is the sincerest form of television.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14507</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Interest in this technology abroad was much higher for airport security because there weren't as many issues related to privacy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39207]]></link><description><![CDATA[Interest in this technology abroad was much higher for airport security because there weren't as many issues related to privacy as in the U.S..]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39207</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Faith is not belief.

For if we do not trust as much as we pray, we fail in full worship to our Lord in our prayer; and also we hinder and hurt ourselves. The reason is that we do not know truly that our Lord is the ground from which our prayer springeth; nor do we know that it is given us by his grace and his love. If we knew this, it would make us trust to have of our Lord's gifts all that we desire. For I am sure that no man asketh mercy and grace with sincerity, without mercy and grace being given to him first.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6243</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Punishment follows close on the heels of crime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50316]]></link><description><![CDATA[Punishment follows close on the heels of crime.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the hollow drum has beat to bed And the little fifer hangs his head,  When all is mute ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43070]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the hollow drum has beat to bed And the little fifer hangs his head,  When all is mute the Moorish flute,   And nodding guards watch wearily,    On, then let me,     From prison free,      March out by moonlight cheerily.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43070</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If fooles should not foole it, they shall lose their season. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49509]]></link><description><![CDATA[If fooles should not foole it, they shall lose their season.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is there more kindly than the feeling between host and guest? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19871]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is there more kindly than the feeling between host and guest?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19871</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Hold faithfulness and sincerity as first principles. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15054]]></link><description><![CDATA[Hold faithfulness and sincerity as first principles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think that I shall never see A billboard lovely as a tree.
