A hard necessity that is, not to want something which can not be avoided. If it could be managed, we would much rather not die; we would like to become like the angels by some other means than death. "We have a building from God," says St. Paul, "a home not made with hands, everlasting in heaven. For indeed we groan, longing to be clothed over with our dwelling from heaven; provided, though we be found clothed, and not naked. For indeed we who are in this dwelling place groan, being burdened; in that we do not wish to be stripped, but to covered over, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life." We want to reach the kingdom of God, but we don't want to travel by way of death. And yet there stands Necessity saying: "This way, please." Do you hesitate, man, to go this way, when this is the way that God came to you?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do your work; not just your work and no more, but a little more for the lavishing's sake -- that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22040]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do your work; not just your work and no more, but a little more for the lavishing's sake -- that little more which is worth all the rest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are plenty of people to whom the crucial problem of their lives never get presented in terms that they ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56828]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are plenty of people to whom the crucial problem of their lives never get presented in terms that they can understand.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But time strips our illusions of their hue, And one by one in turn some grand mistake  Casts off ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48726]]></link><description><![CDATA[But time strips our illusions of their hue, And one by one in turn some grand mistake  Casts off its bright skin yearly like a snake.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48726</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Applause should be an emotional response to the music, rather than a regulated social duty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34486]]></link><description><![CDATA[Applause should be an emotional response to the music, rather than a regulated social duty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34486</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is laid down, ordered, factual is never enough to embrace the whole truth: life always spills over the rim ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59840]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is laid down, ordered, factual is never enough to embrace the whole truth: life always spills over the rim of every cup. -Boris Pasternak.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If one takes pride in one's craft, you won't let a good thing die.
