And then the tide of worship comes in, and it's all gone: the dead sea-urchins and jelly-fish, the paper and the empty cans and the nameless bits of rubbish. The cleansing sea flows over the whole lot. So we are released from a narrow, selfish outlook on the universe by a common act of worship. Our little human affairs are reduced to their proper proportion when seen over against the spaceless Majesty and Beauty of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7767</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who lives without folly isn't so wise as he thinks. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16385]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who lives without folly isn't so wise as he thinks.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16385</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It does not need that a poem should be long.

And unexpressed feelings come forth later in uglier ways. Psychosomatic illnesses often are the reincarnation of cumulative resentment, deep disappointment and disillusionment repressed by the Lose/Win mentality. Disproportionate rage or anger, overreaction to minor provocation, and cynicism are other embodiments of suppressed emotion. People who are constantly repressing, not transcending feelings toward a higher meaning find that it affects the quality of their relationships with others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10267]]></link><description><![CDATA[Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10267</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A girl phoned me the other day and said...

The institution is static, whereas its parent movement has been dynamic; it confines men within its limits, while the movement had liberated them from the bondage of institutions; it looks to the past, [although] the movement had pointed forward. Though in content the institution resembles the dynamic epoch whence it proceeded, in spirit it is like the [state] before the revolution. So the Christian church, after the early period, often seemed more closely related in attitude to the Jewish synagogue and the Roman state than to the age of Christ and his apostles; its creed was often more like a system of philosophy than like the living gospel.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Efficiency is doing things right; effectiveness is doing the right things. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13607]]></link><description><![CDATA[Efficiency is doing things right; effectiveness is doing the right things.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13607</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You cannot describe it or draw it.
