Growth in goodness does not, therefore, necessarily imply increased happiness, on the contrary, it may mean greater unhappiness. And his unhappiness increasing in proportion to the elevation of his ethical standards, a man's end is either Buddha or suicide if he knows no God; while if he knows God, it is despair or that conversion which, having sobbed away its tears on the Father's breast, thence derives ever new strength to fight the battle of life, sure of the final victory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The passionate controversies of one era are viewed as sterile preoccupations by another, for knowledge alters what we seek as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10069]]></link><description><![CDATA[The passionate controversies of one era are viewed as sterile preoccupations by another, for knowledge alters what we seek as well as what we find.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every person, all the events of your life are drawn there because you have them there.

If you blow too hard and too fast, the balloon pops and likewise the relationship breaks. But if you take things slowly and let the balloon of love stretch on its own, it grows into a huge, prosperous balloon, full of love. Also, if you don't push the relationship at all, or at least hold it at the same level it was at, the air will flow out of the balloon, deflating it, and your love will shrivel up and become flat & lifeless. So when you are in love, push the relationship forward slowly and gently and the balloon will grow comfortably into a strong, immense love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sea heaves up, hangs loaded o'er the land, Breaks there, and buries its tumultuous strength. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44876]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sea heaves up, hangs loaded o'er the land, Breaks there, and buries its tumultuous strength.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44876</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No love, no friendship can cross the path of our destiny without leaving some mark on it forever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25835]]></link><description><![CDATA[No love, no friendship can cross the path of our destiny without leaving some mark on it forever.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25835</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This year's nominations are a true reflection of the diversity that currently exists in Latin music, not only across genres ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35217]]></link><description><![CDATA[This year's nominations are a true reflection of the diversity that currently exists in Latin music, not only across genres but across generations as well.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35217</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't feel I made any sacrifices at all.
