"That was fun," I said. "You bet it was," said Nick. "Let's climb higher." "No," I said. "I think we should be heading back now." "We have time," Nick insisted. I said we didn't, and Nick said we did. We argued back and forth like that for about 20 minutes, then finally decided to head back. I didn't say it was an interesting story.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11691</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One is only afraid of the people one cares for. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5248]]></link><description><![CDATA[One is only afraid of the people one cares for.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I must tell you I take terrible risks.

The danger is that we may fail to perceive life's greatest meaning, fall short of its highest good, miss its deepest and most abiding happiness, be unable to tender the most needed service, be unconscious of life ablaze with the light of the Presence of God -- and be content to have it so -- that is the danger: that some day we may wake up and find that always we have been busy with husks and trappings of life and have really missed life itself. For life without God, to one who has known the richness and joy of life with Him, is unthinkable, impossible. That is what one prays one's friends may be spared -- satisfaction with a life that falls short of the best, that has in it no tingle or thrill that comes from a friendship with the Father.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Diversity is the one true thing we all have in common.
