That is why we can study everything else in nature much more surely than we can study ourselves. With ourselves, all we have to go on is an occasional glimpse of some small part of the truth, and we must be content with that, knowing that we are truly known by Him who alone knows us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6514</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I fear it is too choleric a meat. How say you to a fat tripe finely broiled? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13273]]></link><description><![CDATA[I fear it is too choleric a meat. How say you to a fat tripe finely broiled?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13273</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no need for peculiar conditions in order to grow in the spiritual life, for the pressure of God's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7668]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no need for peculiar conditions in order to grow in the spiritual life, for the pressure of God's Spirit is present everywhere and at all times. Our environment itself -- our home and our job -- is the medium through which we experience His moulding action and His besetting love. It is not Christian to try to get out of our frame, or to separate our outward life from our life of prayer, since both are the creation of one Charity. The third-rate little town in the hills, with its limited social contacts and monotonous manual work, reproves us when we begin to fuss about our opportunities and our score. And this quality of quietness, ordinariness, simplicity, with which the saving action of God enters history, endures from the beginning to the end.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lot of substantial psychiatric problems are actually starting and are identifiable much earlier than we ever thought, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28459]]></link><description><![CDATA[A lot of substantial psychiatric problems are actually starting and are identifiable much earlier than we ever thought,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28459</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is certain when it comes to the ways of women, of that I'm sure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36911]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is certain when it comes to the ways of women, of that I'm sure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36911</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are talking about an economy averaging about 30 miles per hour in a 60-mph speed zone.

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[A subject for a great poet would be God's boredom after the seventh day of creation. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63602]]></link><description><![CDATA[A subject for a great poet would be God's boredom after the seventh day of creation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have to treat every game like a playoff game right now because they are.
