In that sense God is not omnipotent: He is limited by His own nature, by His perfect goodness and mercy; for the omnipotence of God means nothing apart from His Fatherly love. In particular, this limitation of the power of God is to be found in the measure of freedom which, as His children, we enjoy. God shares His power with us so that, for a time at least, if we so determine, we can break His laws and frustrate His plans, but also so that we can give to Him, if we choose, the free allegiance of our hearts and minds, and become children at His Family Table, drawn together by the compulsion of His love, and not the exercise of His might.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Solitude is independence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20720]]></link><description><![CDATA[Solitude is independence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trouble is that rich people, well-to-do people, very often don't really know who the poor are; and that is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59717]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trouble is that rich people, well-to-do people, very often don't really know who the poor are; and that is why we can forgive them, for knowledge can only lead to love, and love to service.

My poor friend Christopher Smart showed the disturbance of his mind, by falling upon his knees, and saying his prayers in the street, or in any other unusual place. Now although, rationally speaking, it is greater madness not to pray at all, than to pray as Smart did, I am afraid there are so many who do not pray, that their understanding is not called in question... I did not think he ought to be shut up. His infirmities were not noxious to society. He insisted on people praying with him; and I'd as lief pray with Kit Smart as any.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8224</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An elephant wasn't sitting on my chest, so I couldn't be having a heart attack.
