Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain. - Dune, "Litany Against Fear", 1965.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10369</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My doctor gave me six months to live, but when I couldn't pay the bill he gave me six months ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12609]]></link><description><![CDATA[My doctor gave me six months to live, but when I couldn't pay the bill he gave me six months more.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fantasy, abandoned by reason, produces impossible monsters; united with it, she is the mother of the arts and the origin ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27802]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fantasy, abandoned by reason, produces impossible monsters; united with it, she is the mother of the arts and the origin of marvels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48587]]></link><description><![CDATA[A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48587</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The greatest power is often simple patience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66527]]></link><description><![CDATA[The greatest power is often simple patience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66527</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anticipation makes the pleasure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65846]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anticipation makes the pleasure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65846</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I told her we just needed a ball into the outfield. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40953]]></link><description><![CDATA[I told her we just needed a ball into the outfield.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40953</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anyone who says they are not interested in politics is like a drowning man who insists he is not interested ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46924]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anyone who says they are not interested in politics is like a drowning man who insists he is not interested in water]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sense of death is most in apprehension; And the poor beetle, that we tread upon, In corporal sufferance finds ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55389]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sense of death is most in apprehension; And the poor beetle, that we tread upon, In corporal sufferance finds a pang as great As when a giant dies. -Measure for Measure.

You will never get them open by philosophy or thinking. Immediately you obey, a flash of light comes. Let God's truth work in you by soaking in it, not by worrying into it. Obey God in the thing He is at present showing you, and instantly the next thing is opened up. We read tomes on the work of the Holy Spirit when... five minutes of drastic obedience would make things clear as a sunbeam. We say, "I suppose I shall understand these things some day." You can understand them now: it is not study that does it, but obedience. The tiniest fragment of obedience, and heaven opens up and the profoundest truths of God are yours straight away. God will never reveal more truth about Himself till you obey what you know already. Beware of being wise and prudent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make haste; the better foot before. -King John. Act iv.
