In these days when power and size and speed are almost universally admired, it seems to me particularly important to study afresh the "weakness", the "smallness of entry", and the "slowness" of God as He begins His vast work of reconstructing His disordered world. We are all tempted to take short cuts, to work for quick results, and to evade painful sacrifice. It is therefore essential that we should look again at love incarnate in a human being, to see God Himself at work within the limitations of human personality, and to base our methods on what we see Him do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Out of the solar walk and Heaven's highway. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58286]]></link><description><![CDATA[Out of the solar walk and Heaven's highway.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58286</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not possible for civilization to flow backwards while there is youth in the world.

It is surely the becoming of a person. Are we not, for most of our lives, marking time? Most of our being is at rest, unlived. In passion, the body and the spirit seek expression outside of self. Passion is all that is other from self. Sex is only interesting when it releases passion. The more extreme and the more expressed that passion is, the more unbearable does life seem without it. It reminds us that if passion dies or is denied, we are partly dead and that soon, come what may, we will be wholly so.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Us sing and dance, make faces and give flower bouquets, trying to be loved.
