For it is in love that we find the greatest of strengths and the deepest of sorrows. Love can seem to be so fleeting and unachievable yet it remains well within our reach if we only learn how to embrace it's power. To experience true love, we must be willing to open ourselves up and sacrifice part of our heart and part of our soul. We must be willing to give of ourselves freely, and we must be willing to suffer. It is only when we expose our inner selves to the white hot flame of rejection, that love can burn so brightly as to join to souls, melding the two into one, creating a bond that joins forever. It is from this bond that we draw strength eternal and power ever lasting. It is in this thing that we call love that we find the means to achieve greatness, both in ourselves and in our lives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25636</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is history but a fable agreed upon? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19500]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is history but a fable agreed upon?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19500</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It looks like things are going to get rough, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35123]]></link><description><![CDATA[It looks like things are going to get rough,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35123</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is passion?

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[The man that weds for greedy wealth, He goes a fishing fair,  But often times he gets a frog, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16097]]></link><description><![CDATA[The man that weds for greedy wealth, He goes a fishing fair,  But often times he gets a frog,   Or very little share.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16097</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life does not accomodate you, it shatters you.
