The minute a man reaches thirty thousand feet, he immediately becomes consumed by distasteful sexual fantasies which involve doing uncomfortable things in those tiny toilets. These men should not be encouraged, their fantasies are sadly low-rent and unimaginative. Affect an aloof, cool demeanor as soon as any man tries to draw you out. Unless, of course, he's the pilot.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Becoming a grandmother is wonderful. One moment you're just a mother.

I think when Judas fled from his hanged and fallen body, he fled to the tender help of Jesus, and found it -- I say not how. He was in a more hopeful condition now than during any moment of his past life, for he had never repented before.

For one thing, it implies that we have no spiritual ambition, else we should not be satisfied with such poor lives; that we cannot have thought out the fact of Jesus Christ, and how immeasurably He has raised the standard. Will you hang your wretched daubs beside the works of Titian and Michelangelo and not be shamed by the enormous contrast -- stand back and say, with a satisfied smirk, "That is pretty good, you know!"? And can you live face to face with Jesus Christ, and be content with what you are?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7852</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm having the time of my life figuring out this next move. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9921]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm having the time of my life figuring out this next move.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9921</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's as important as anything I've ever done as owner.

To have the next great big man of the NBA, it's very important for the team and the city. We're trying to win championships, and anything that takes away from that concentration (such as contract issues) hurts. I think we can be one of the top three teams in the West.

This is not a specially religious mistake. We think of supernaturalism when faith is mentioned, but the naturalistic description of the world also operates on assumptions that require a faith as robust as does the most soaring mysticism. The usual efforts to skirt faith beg all the questions there are. A psychiatrist, for instance, who points out to you that you believe in God the Father because you need a father, or that you became a missionary to expiate your guilt feelings, may be quite correct, but he has not touched on the prior question as to whether there is, in fact, a cosmic father figure who is the archetype of all other fathers, or whether there is an evangel worth spending your life promulgating.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sharks are as tough as those football fans who take their shirts off during games in Chicago in January, only ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16404]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sharks are as tough as those football fans who take their shirts off during games in Chicago in January, only more intelligent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16404</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I know what I should love to do--to build a study; to write, and to think of nothing else.
